Sean Lennon Net Worth

Sean Lennon's Quotes

• [1983] Peace is a good thing, and so is salmon when it's smoked.
• [on being compared to his father, John Lennon] I'm so used to it. I'm more taken aback when I'm asked something that isn't about my dad. That's when I get really surprised. I mean, my whole life has been responding to questions about him. It doesn't bother me at all. It's beyond being bothered. You can't be bothered by, you know, wind.
• I feel like part of me is very strange- a real weirdo. That's probably the artistic side. I think I have another side that's more integrated and sociable. There's a sort of battle between my anti-social and my social personalities.
• Being famous is having the power to really implement positive change in the world, and it gives you the power to do what you want. I'm really grateful for it because I can play music and people will listen.
• The most important thing in my father's life? World peace. Me and my brother. My mom.
