More quotes by Yoko Ono
Society tells you that when you're old you have to retire. You have to defy that.
Yoko Ono
It's better that you're criticized than complimented as a person.
Yoko Ono
I just want to be healthy and stay alive and keep my family going and everything and keep my friends going and try to do something so that this world will be peaceful. That is the most ambitious and the most difficult thing, but I'm there trying to do it.
Yoko Ono
Keep going until your efforts start to make things better in your hometown.
Yoko Ono
Everyone is an artist and a genius, I think. If we don't choose to limit ourselves then we are totally accomplished.
Yoko Ono
I should think that people would be more interested in politics and all that is happening, rather than two lovebirds who are looking to wed. I think it's very nice that in an age when love is so scarce that people are willing to gamble on getting married.
Yoko Ono
Be silent in a group of people See what they reveal to you.
Yoko Ono
Music is like my security blanket.
Yoko Ono
Performance art is going to be the future. Plays on Broadway are so restricted. But performance art is like haikus, just one line thing. And it's more casual but more interesting.
Yoko Ono
I wonder why men get serious at all. They have this delicate, long thing hanging outside their bodies which goes up and down by its own will. If I were a man I would always be laughing at myself.
Yoko Ono
Our thoughts determine our age.
Yoko Ono
Everybody's an artist. Everybody's God. It's just that they're inhibited. I believe in people so much that if the whole of civilization is burned so we don't have any memory of it, even then people will start to build their own art. It is a necessity -- a function. We don't need history.
Yoko Ono
I started to notice that simpleness is divine. I think we all start trying to use very complex harmonies and rhythms and all that because of a certain kind of ambition. But I was always trying to create something simple.
Yoko Ono
What is beauty? It's what you love.
Yoko Ono
The Beatles were a group made up of four very complex men, and my small hand could not have broken these men up.
Yoko Ono
When you say 'I love you', you are not just saying it to that person. You are saying 'I love you' to yourself, the planet & The Universe.
Yoko Ono
I really feel that artists or musicians are controversial people. Controversy is part of the nature of art and creativity. If people are not doing that, they're not artists - they're artisans.
Yoko Ono
If I was a Jewish girl in Hitler's day, I would become his girlfriend. After ten days in bed, he would come to my way of thinking.
Yoko Ono
Fracking kills, and it doesn't just kill us. It kills the land, nature and, eventually, the whole world.
Yoko Ono
Think of the Earth as a turning point in eternity. Think of the Earth as a meeting point in infinity.
Yoko Ono
