I did not break up the Beatles. You can't have it both ways. If you're going to blame me for breaking the Beatles up, you should be thankful that I made them into myth rather than a crumbling group.
Yoko Ono

I have a woman inside my soul.
Yoko Ono

Yoko Ono

I'm not the kind of woman who would love to make soup or knit sweaters. I never cherished that so much.
Yoko Ono
Image
All women are feminists. Being a feminist is allowing woman to be natural, for what she is, whatever it is. All of us can be natural and we're all feminists in that sense.

I am extremely rebellious. I have this strong, defiant spirit.
