The Beatles star, who was born in Liverpool on October 9, 1940, had his life tragically cut short when he was shot dead in Manhattan, aged 40.”
One of John's several quotes: “If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.”

Nearly 36 years ago, the world was robbed of one of its most influential musicians, the incomparable John Lennon. Today, on what would have been his 76th birthday, we look back on his peacemaking legacy and the imprint he left on popular culture.
Lennon is perhaps best known as the founding member of Liverpool pop group The Beatles. The band’s astounding popularity propelled Lennon and his fellow Beatles into the watchful public eye when they were in their early twenties, leading to nearly a decade of No. 1 hits like “I Want to Hold Your Hand” and “Eleanor Rigby.”
After The Beatles’s 1970 breakup, Lennon proved himself a talented solo artist with the release of Imagine the following year.” (in http://www.instyle.com/news/john-lennon-birthday-age-beatles-best-performances-video)
