Sean Lennon

I'm not trying to overcome my father or fill his shoes or reach any kind of level that he did. We're talking about a Mozart of rock music.

Growing up, I fantasized about being a rock musician and that somehow it would be really easy. I didn't realize that it's so much work.

I like music because it's the only invisible art form.

It's a terrifying thing to be perhaps 16 or 17 and feel like you are a failure and a has-been.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

Children know when they are being sold a sanitised version of the world, and I think that's a betrayal of the relationship between author and reader.
