"I think it was John Lennon who once said 'life is what happens when you're making other plans', and that's exactly the way I feel. Although he also said 'I am the walrus, I am the eggman', so I don't know what to believe."

Tim Canterbury, in BBC sitcom The Office

On a similar note:

The Dude: It's like what Lenin said... you look for the person who will benefit, and, uh, uh...
Donny: I am the walrus.
The Dude: You know what I'm trying to say...
Donny: I am the walrus.
Walter Sobchak: Shut the fuck up, Donny! V.I. Lenin! Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov!

From the The Big Lebowski (1998)

And John Lennon later, after the Beatles split, in the song Glass Onion:

I told you 'bout the walrus and me man,
you know that we're as close as can be man.
Here's another clue for you all,
the walrus was Paul.


We are the people.
We are the Walrus.
Liberate us.
goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob!
