Actor`s page Julian Lennon, 8 April 1963, Liverpool, England, UK!

As much as I love music, in my mind, photography is what makes me the happiest - that's for sure.

I live in a small apartment in London, not some big house with a lot of security. I don't like too much security. There's no freedom. I'm a person, not some precious diamond that needs guarding every second. Show less «

I am a complete mother's boy. I try to do everything with honour, respect and grace because the last thing I would want to do is hurt her. Show less «

Dad could talk about peace and love out loud to the world, but he could never show it to the people who supposedly meant the most to him: his wife and son. How can you talk about peace and love and have a family in bits and pieces - no communication, adultery, divorce? You can't do it, not if you're being true and honest with yourself. Show less «

Like most photographers, I try to capture a moment in my work.

I can't stay mad very long. I get grumpy when I read a bad review. I say, 'How could he say that about my music?' Then I forget about it. If I got mad every time somebody wrote something negative about me, I'd be exploding all the time. I'd be burned out just from reading reviews. Show less «

I've never really wanted to know the truth about how Dad was with me. There was some negative stuff, like when he said I'd come out of a whiskey bottle on a Saturday night. Stuff like that. You think, 'Where's the love in that?' ...There seems to be far more pictures of me and Paul [McCartney] playing together at that age than there are pictures of me and my dad. Show less «

Music's been with me from the get-go. It was always around me as a kid. Dad got me my first guitar when I was 11 and, at school, if you wanted to be cool you had to be in a band. Show less «

People are generally badly advised when they're starting out in the creative field.

He wasn't a great father. He was a great musician. That's always been a touchy one, and it will be until I can find the answer, but I don't know if there is one. Show less «

I don't meditate in any formal way, but I often lie in bed or find myself in nature and enter into that state of quiet where I get images, feelings, or melodies. Show less «

I love to sit on a mountain top and gaze. I don't think of anything but the people I care about and the view. Show less «

I've found constancy and balance between creativity and normality.

I had always thought of starting my own record company. I haven't regretted the decision - yet!

He was like a real dad, you know. We used to sit down with guitars and mess around.

If you bring a child into this world, whether it's planned or an accident, you'd better make sure you can care for it. You have to be around. You make time. It's as simple as that. Show less «

I've done every kind of touring known to mankind. I've played the big and the small places.

My goal in life has been to be a songsmith, not a pop person.
