More quotes by 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
When people get cynical about love, they should look at us [Yoko and John Lennon] and see it is possible
Yoko Ono
Keep going until your efforts start to make things better in your hometown.
Yoko Ono
I think that all women are witches, in the sense that a witch is a magical being. And a wizard, which is a male version of a witch, is kind of revered, and people respect wizards. But a witch, my god, we have to burn them.
Yoko Ono
Many incredible artists die before they were famous.
Yoko Ono
You can't always be in awe of someone's talent, living with them.
Yoko Ono
People think that their world will get smaller as they get older. My experience is just the opposite. Your senses become more acute. You start to blossom.
Yoko Ono
Sometimes I have compared myself with a scientist or something: when you discover something and you don't expect the whole world to understand it. I always thought I was doing that kind of activity, in art and in music too.
Yoko Ono
What all of us artists are doing is using our pain as material to create our work.
Yoko Ono
Fracking kills, and it doesn't just kill us. It kills the land, nature and, eventually, the whole world.
Yoko Ono
Love is an incredibly strong thing, it goes everywhere, it's like water, you can't stop it. Love, once you have it, once you create a kind of pathway for it to come out, it just keeps on coming out.
Yoko Ono
Not being appreciated for 40 years or something ... It feels like I was accused of something that I didn't do, which was breaking up the Beatles. That was like being somebody who is in prison without having done anything wrong.
Yoko Ono
Over 1,057,000 people have been killed by guns in the USA since John Lennon was shot and killed on 8 Dec 1980.
Yoko Ono
When I speak out against the guns or against the big corporations, some of my friends say, 'Oh Yoko, be careful. These people have all the power.' But, you know, most people don't speak out because they are frightened.
Yoko Ono
You have to release your emotion in order to keep your sanity.
Yoko Ono
Faces can lie. Backsides can't.
Yoko Ono
Give death announcements each time you move instead of giving announcements of the change of address. Send the same when you die.
Yoko Ono
I am aware of the sufferings of women in India, which is also the suffering of women in many, many countries on our planet. My heart is filled with empathy and love for them.
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
I often wish my mother had died so that at least I could get some people's sympathy. But there she was, a perfectly beautiful mother.
Yoko Ono
