More quotes by Yoko Ono
I have the outsider's vision, which is creating wisdom I can share with the world. The fact that I am misunderstood has always given me an added impetus to work on communication to bridge the gap.
Yoko Ono
When you are feeling bad, do one thing a day to make your heart dance. It could be a simple thing like looking up at the sky.
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
I'm a very obsessive type. If I do get into it, I'll soon be there 12 hours a day. I just don't want to do that.
Yoko Ono
Loneliness is equal to the radius of one's awareness.
Yoko Ono
You know harmony only exists in music-isn't that amazing? I think that if you see earth from very far away, the color is blue. That is very interesting because blue is the color of communication.
Yoko Ono
The sky is always there for me, while my life has been going through many, many changes. When I look up the sky, it gives me a nice feeling, like looking at an old friend.
Yoko Ono
I am extremely rebellious. I have this strong, defiant spirit.
Yoko Ono
Most of the fans of John Lennon and maybe John and Yoko are younger than me.
Yoko Ono
Smile to the future and it will smile back to you
Yoko Ono
The war industry people are very together they know exactly what they want they don't even have to talk to each other. The peace industry people are just intellectuals who are very critical of each other... Unless the peace industry is powerful, we're always going to have war. It is as simple as that.
Yoko Ono
There's a big difference between sending your art in a statement or something like that, and sending yourself there. When you send yourself somewhere, then you are sharing your information uncontrollably - like all yourself.
Yoko Ono
True artists are prophets. I don't want to be that prophetic in that sense because it's so lonely.
Yoko Ono
When I was 4 years old my mother put me into an early music education school. That's where they taught you perfect pitch and harmony and how to write music and all that. At that time, one of the homeworks was to listen to all the sounds and the noise of a day and transfer that into musical notes.
Yoko Ono
If I hear dance music, my body starts to move. Whatever the dance music is, I can't help it. With all that, I still felt, well, rock is a little higher art, but it wasn't. Right now, because I have so much experience with dance charts, I started to realize that it's incredible art. This is going to be known one day as high art.
Yoko Ono
I realized that an artist seeking to tell the truth in her art takes great courage. I recognize the courage required to bring children together from Israeli and Palestinian communities to find commonality in music as a very powerful and effective beginning towards Peace.
Yoko Ono
I see so many activists... who are artists because they feel that they have the power of communication.
Yoko Ono
Events are the best teacher for us. You try to learn from people, there is always some bend to it.
Yoko Ono
When people ask me what the most important thing is in life, I answer: 'Just breathe.'
Yoko Ono
Art for me is like breathing. When I stop breathing, what happens?
Yoko Ono
