If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace.John Lennon

This is a very true and straight forward quote that Lennon makes. He describes how most people think about themselves instead of everyone around them. He believes that the world would be such a better place if everyone followed this guideline. It seems like a very simple rule to follow, however, it would be nearly impossible for everyone in the world to follow this quote.

Lennon uses a very simple comparison between a television set and peace. I think it is a great comparison that everyone can relate to. This quote especially relates to all of the American’s. Almost every house in America has a television set. Television is a way of life for American’s. Lennon simply states that if peace was a way of life for people in the world then our world would have peace. This is a simple quote that has a great meaning behind it. I like how Lennon relates this to so many people.

If everyone demanded friendship instead of the internet, then there’d be a lot more friends.
