John Lennon: "Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives." (6 June 1968)

Transcript: I think all our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. And I think that's what I sussed when I was 16 and 12 way down the line. But I expressed it differently all through me life. It's the same thing I'm expressing all the time but now I can put it into that sentence: That I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends, you know?

If anybody can put on paper what our government and the American government etcetera and the Russian, Chinese what they are actually trying to do, you know, and how what they think they're doing. I'd be very pleased to know what they think they're doing. I think they're all insane, you know, but I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that, you know? That's what's insane about it. I mean, don't you agree?
--John Lennon, 6 June 1968.
