More quotes by Yoko Ono
I get very nervous before I get on the stage, but once I'm on the stage, I'm just, you know, me. Nothing hurts me.
Yoko Ono
Great Art is Great because it inspired you greatly. If it didn't, no matter what the critics, the museums and the galleries say, it's not great art for you.
Yoko Ono
Every time I create something, just before that there's a kind of - you're feeling very low, you're feeling very down and insecure. Then you create and then it's fine. This is the way I observe me doing it.
Yoko Ono
I should think that people would be more interested in politics and all that is happening, rather than two lovebirds who are looking to wed. I think it's very nice that in an age when love is so scarce that people are willing to gamble on getting married.
Yoko Ono
My work was not embraced for many decades. I would have killed myself if getting embraced affected me so much.
Yoko Ono
I never wanted to be a professional artist I think that's limiting.
Yoko Ono
Some people think that movements, such as the movements in ballet, are a higher cultural expression, whereas some are just dirt. I think it is elitist to think that a trained movement is more acceptable than untrained and possibly unrehearsed movements.
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
True artists are prophets. I don't want to be that prophetic in that sense because it's so lonely.
Yoko Ono
Sometimes I have compared myself with a scientist or something: when you discover something and you don't expect the whole world to understand it. I always thought I was doing that kind of activity, in art and in music too.
Yoko Ono
I think that all women are witches, in the sense that a witch is a magical being. Don't be scared of witches, because we are good witches, and you should appreciate our magical power.
Yoko Ono
John wrote with a very deep love for the human race and a concern for its future.
Yoko Ono
Everybody's an artist. Everybody's God. It's just that they're inhibited.
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
Many incredible artists die before they were famous.
Yoko Ono
I'm very thankful that I can make people happy just by signing my name.
Yoko Ono
My life was pretty rough.
Yoko Ono
Being alone is very difficult.
Yoko Ono
There's a long life ahead of you and it's going to be beautiful, as long as you keep loving and hugging each other.
Yoko Ono
Artists are going to be the metronome of this society.
Yoko Ono
