Yoko Ono
The only way you can better John is by copying him exactly.
Yoko Ono
Anger is an emotion that is very energetic. It is an ideal emotion to turn it around to make it work as a positive force.
Yoko Ono
I never went to art school and I never thought of going to an art school. It was just a way of manifesting these ideas I had. Ideas came to me that I needed to express.
Yoko Ono
I admire all people who are trying to be a good power in this chaotic world.
Yoko Ono
Art is a way of survival.
Yoko Ono
We mustn't be traditional in the way we communicate with people - especially with the Establishment. We should surprise people by saying new things in an entirely new way. Communication of that sort can have a fantastic power so long as you don't do only what they expect you to do.
Yoko Ono
