More quotes by Yoko Ono
Look at yourself in the mirror and don't be afraid to notice how beautiful you are.
Yoko Ono
Give peace a chance and let's hope that one day we will all live in peace.
Yoko Ono
We don't live by just sleeping and eating. We need pride and dignity in our lives. Work gives you that.
Yoko Ono
Dancing is a very healthy thing to do for our body.
Yoko Ono
I'm not going to doubt my life.
Yoko Ono
I never want projects to be finished I have always believed in unfinished work. I got that from Schubert, you know, the 'Unfinished Symphony.'
Yoko Ono
I have been known as the minimal and conceptual artist for over five decades. I think I haven't changed much.
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
Nobody's life is a bed of roses. We all have crosses to bear and we all just do our best.
Yoko Ono
To have world peace, we all have to have a healthy understanding of what is necessary to bring World Peace. It's not something that will be dropped on our laps. We have to work for it. Until we get World Peace, I think my strongest passion stays in the effort to get it.
Yoko Ono
Creativity is innate and it manifests itself in so many forms. It needs to come out somehow or it destroys you in some way.
Yoko Ono
True artists are prophets. I don't want to be that prophetic in that sense because it's so lonely.
Yoko Ono
Distance doesn't exist, in fact, and neither does time. Vibrations from love or music can be felt everywhere, at all times.
Yoko Ono
I don't particularly consider myself just an artist. I'm a woman - I'm a human being.
Yoko Ono
I always believed that my work should be unfinished in the sense that I encourage people to add their creativity to it, either conceptually or physically. Back in the 1960s, I was calling for 'Unfinished Music,' number one, and number two, with my artwork - I was taking unfinished work into the gallery. And that's how I was looking at it.
Yoko Ono
I think there is a big difference between the music business and music. And my relationship is to music, not music business. I think the business will keep changing, but music won't. Music will be there.
Yoko Ono
I am extremely rebellious. I have this strong, defiant spirit.
Yoko Ono
Dance music makes us dance. Let us get off our couch and spin around!
Yoko Ono
A lot of things have been thrown at me in life, and I've got through it all without a rule book, taking it one day at a time.
Yoko Ono
Tape the sound of the moon fading at dawn. Give it to your mother to listen to when she's in sorrow.
Yoko Ono
