People are still thinking of solving problems by violence and war, and that has to stop.
Yoko Ono
Image
The process is always the same. I get an inspiration for a new song, I put it down on paper immediately so I won't lose it. When I am ready to go to the studio with it, I play it a few times on the piano and edit, add, and type the lyrics and take it to the studio. Sometimes I don't have anything on paper.

It's better to dance than to march through life.
Yoko Ono
Image
The human race is a very, very magical race. We have a magic power of witches and wizards. We're here on this earth to unravel the mystery of this planet. The planet is asking for it.
Yoko Ono

Life keeps getting better. If anything, you start to carry a certain pride in having survived all those years.

The computer is my favourite invention. I feel lucky to be part of the global village. I don't mean to brag, but I'm so fast with technology. People think it all seems too much, but we'll get used to it. I'm sure it all seemed too much when we were learning to walk.

Losing my daughter was a very serious pain. There was always some empty space in my heart.
Yoko Ono

When you go through a negative situation, don’t think about it. Make it positive.

We need to really do something about the world. Otherwise, we're all going to blow up together.
Yoko Ono

Sound as medium has an incredible elasticity. So, of course, it is tempting for artists of other fields to try something with sounds. Why not? We are living in the age when there is no limit in gathering all forms of art and music to mix it together if you so desire.

I travel a lot, so when I arrive in a city, I like to go to good local bookshops and make a selection based on how I'm feeling and what I'm thinking. The book I pick usually seems to have a definite karmic connection!
Yoko Ono
Image
Energy is so important. If you don't have it, don't bother with rock and roll.
Yoko Ono
Image
I'm not giving any guidance, OK. I mean, you know, mothers are not supposed to give guidance, right? Anyway, so he's [Sean] doing his own thing.
Yoko Ono
Image
Some people don't listen to my music because they say that I am an artist. And some don't want to go to my gallery shows, because they say I am a musician.
Yoko Ono
Image
There are things you can never take, no matter how strong you are.
Yoko Ono
Image
I see so many activists... who are artists because they feel that they have the power of communication.
Yoko Ono
Image
What all of us artists are doing is using our pain as material to create our work.
Yoko Ono

You can be very wild and still be very wise
Yoko Ono

Society was built on male power, and women's power was... ignored is the best word to describe it I suppose, we have been running society on one power, half a power really. And that's so terrible. The world needs women's power too.

People just love to be entertained, and in order to entertain them, you have to do things in a way that they understand.
