More quotes by Yoko Ono
The art world was not initially really accepting my kind of work. I was ahead of my time.
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.
Yoko Ono
I often wish my mother had died so that at least I could get some people's sympathy. But there she was, a perfectly beautiful mother.
Yoko Ono
If your life changes, we can change the world, too.
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
If you're criticized then you can use it as an experience. Compliments, you can't use.
Yoko Ono
The universe is a space bigger than all of us we are part of.
Yoko Ono
Women are very intelligent and not appreciated. We try to pretend that we are not clever, and it's such a pity that we can't show how clever we are.
Yoko Ono
John would have been the first white rapper. And also he would have cherished the Internet.
Yoko Ono
You can't always be in awe of someone's talent, living with them.
Yoko Ono
World peace is one project that we have to do together.
Yoko Ono
In a way the new music showed things could be transformed by new channels of communication.
Yoko Ono
I have the outsider's vision, which is creating wisdom I can share with the world. The fact that I am misunderstood has always given me an added impetus to work on communication to bridge the gap.
Yoko Ono
Fracking kills, and it doesn't just kill us. It kills the land, nature and, eventually, the whole world.
Yoko Ono
And the more you are active about something you love, the world is going to be a better place.
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
In the '60s we fought for peace, when the Vietnam war was on. We were against the cops and against the politicians, and there was a lot of waving banners and all that. And I think in a way, just as they were enjoying that machoism of war, we were enjoying the machismo of being anti-war, you know?
Yoko Ono
When you are feeling bad, do one thing a day to make your heart dance. It could be a simple thing like looking up at the sky.
Yoko Ono
I never want projects to be finished I have always believed in unfinished work. I got that from Schubert, you know, the 'Unfinished Symphony.'
Yoko Ono
To have a relationship that is pure and passionate and beautiful - I think people are scared of having that now. Especially guys.
Yoko Ono
