More quotes by Yoko Ono
Your thoughts create reality. The most pragmatic way to create world peace is to use your power of visualization. Think Peace, Act Peace, Spread Peace, Imagine Peace. Your thoughts will soon cover the planet. The most important thing is to believe in your power. It works.
Yoko Ono
I trust in my inspiration, really, and that's difficult because sometimes you would rather be technical. And once you empty your mind, empty your brain, it's really incredible. I'm very caring about things that dash into my brain, and I make sure I don't just clog it.
Yoko Ono
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.
Yoko Ono
Next time you meet a 'foreigner', remember it's only like a window with a different shape to it and the person who's sitting inside is you.
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
Rather than deal with problems in relationships, I've always moved on. That's why I'm one of the very few survivors as a woman, you know.
Yoko Ono
All my life, I have been in love with the sky. Even when everything was falling apart around me, the sky was always there for me.
Yoko Ono
Many incredible artists die before they were famous.
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
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
Some people are saying there's going to be a third World War. I hope not. I really think this is a time that people can start to mend things by negotiations, dealings. We know about dealings, don't we? We have brilliant lawyers. Why don't we have brilliant lawyers standing up and working for peace?
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
I think that there is a sort of spiritual power that is translating into our bodies as we perform. Performers give, and giving is so important. It can heal. That is my experience, anyway.
Yoko Ono
The amazing thing is that we could live in the world together peacefully, feed the world, shelter the world. We have that capability both spiritually and technologically.
Yoko Ono
When I turned 60, it didn't bother me at all.
Yoko Ono
Artists and musicians of the Sixties were definitely into clothes.
Yoko Ono
Smile in the mirror. Do that every morning and you'll start to see a big difference in your life.
Yoko Ono
If I was a Jewish girl in Hitler's day, I would become his girlfriend. After ten days in bed, he would come to my way of thinking.
Yoko Ono
I am the type of person who would do something thoroughly if someone said, I don't think you can do it. I am extremely rebellious. I have this strong, defiant spirit.
Yoko Ono
Remember love. Remember our hearts are one. Even when we are fighting with each other, our hearts are beating in unison. I love you.
Yoko Ono
