I want to incite people to loosen their oppression by giving them something to work with, to build on. They shouldn't be frightened of creating themselves - that's why I make things very open, with things for people to do.

Indie music is 'it' now. It's kind of a revolution to the music: 1980s, 1990s music was getting very sanitized they were complying with the music industry. Music was getting more and more dead in a way. Now, because of the social climate that's very severe, the artists are compelled to start being real. It's really great that indie music is now.
Yoko Ono
I'm into indie music. I think indie is going to bring back the spirit in music. There was a time when it was all about accommodating the music business, the music was getting tasteless, but the spirit is back.
Yoko Ono
Every drop in the ocean counts.
Yoko Ono
I think energy is the most important thing that we can give to people as performers. Anything else is a little bit pretentious. But energy is not.
Yoko Ono
The regret of my life is that I have not said 'I love you' often enough.
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
There is an incredible love in creating art unless somebody is saying, 'Hey, let's just make money,' because it doesn't work when you do it that way. If you are aiming for that, forget it.
Yoko Ono
The art world was not initially really accepting my kind of work. I was ahead of my time.
Yoko Ono
I thought art was a verb, rather than a noun.
Yoko Ono
People are still thinking of solving problems by violence and war, and that has to stop.
Yoko Ono
Perhaps one feels more pain when parents are there. It's like when you're hungry, you know, it's worse to get a symbol of a cheeseburger than no cheeseburger at all. It doesn't do you any good, you know.
Yoko Ono
