Short quotes from interviews with John Lennon in 1971

I never 'imagined' this would be as true today as it was back when I was just a teen.

"Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends, and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it."

"If anyone can put on paper what our government and the American government, the Russians and Chinese, what they are actually trying to do and what they think they are doing ... I'd be very pleased to know what they think they're doing. I think they are all insane."

"Anybody knows that the people have the power. All we have to do is awaken the power in the people. The people are unaware. It's like they're not educated to realise that they have power. They put the politicians in power. They vote for the local Major. The people do it."

"Everybody believes that the father will fix everything. The father being the government. Government will fix everything. It is all government's fault, you know, shake a fist at the government. Well, we are the government."

"We are the Government. The People are the Government, and the People have the Power. We must make them aware of this."

Donald Trump says that he is going to fix everything.
What do you imagine John Lennon would think of Trump?

About the same as he would likely opine about Hillary.

better to listen to the One risen from the dead than one dead hero of many who wanted to imagine but was as corrupt any other man.
