Image
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.

Image
Fracking is an incredible risk to the human race, I don't know why they even thought of doing it.
Yoko Ono
Image
The art world was not initially really accepting my kind of work. I was ahead of my time.
Yoko Ono
Image
The computer is my favourite invention. I feel lucky to be part of the global village. I don't mean to brag, but I'm so fast with technology. People think it all seems too much, but we'll get used to it. I'm sure it all seemed too much when we were learning to walk.

Try to say nothing negative about anybody for three days, for forty-five days, for three months. See what happens to your life.
Yoko Ono
Image
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
Image
I think I'm an observer in a way. And my life was not so - well, my life was bad too - but it's just that I had the sense to cope with it. But it's probably not that easy to cope if you're in a society where you get killed when your husband dies.

In your head, a sunset can go on for days

Many of my songs were dance orientated from way back. That's because I love dance! When I hear a dance number, just hearing the first eight bars, it immediately makes my bod start moving and dancing.

We are all dreamers creating the next world, the next beautiful world for ourselves and for our children.

People make music to get a reaction. Music is communication.
Yoko Ono
Image
The whole world is starting to realize that it was the most unwise thing for our society to have ignored women power, to run the society with male priorities.
Yoko Ono
Image
I never thought, I'm going to be an artist. When I actually began to become successful in the art world I made it a point to say, 'I am a dilettante, I am not a professional artist, which is true.

I thank Pussy Riot for standing firmly in their belief for Freedom of Expression, and making all women of the world proud to be women.
