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.

Image
Don't ever give up on life. Life can be so beautiful, especially after you've spent a lot of time with it.

Dancing is a very healthy thing to do for our body.

People are still thinking of solving problems by violence and war, and that has to stop.

Kill all the men you have slept with. Put the bones in a box and send it into the sea with flowers.

The only instrument I can play is piano. Whenever I make songs at home, I play the piano and make them on the piano.

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

I am extremely rebellious. I have this strong, defiant spirit.
Yoko Ono
Image
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.

Perhaps one feels more pain when parents are there. It's like when you're hungry, you know, it's worse to get a symbol of a cheeseburger than no cheeseburger at all. It doesn't do you any good, you know.
Yoko Ono
Image
Sometimes I am happy and sometimes not. I am, after all, a human being, you know. And I am glad that we are sometimes happy and sometimes not. You get your wisdom working by having different emotions.
Yoko Ono

When you go through a negative situation, don’t think about it. Make it positive.
Yoko Ono
Image
My heart is mysteriously alive in the world of sounds - a totally different dimension from the daily life.
Yoko Ono

Look at yourself in the mirror and don't be afraid to notice how beautiful you are.

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?

Each time we don't say what we wanna say, we're dying.

Tape the sound of the moon fading at dawn. Give it to your mother to listen to when she's in sorrow.
Yoko Ono
Image
Nobody's life is a bed of roses. We all have crosses to bear, and we all just do our best. I would never claim to have the worst situation. There are many widows, and many people dying of AIDS, many people killed in Lebanon, people starving all over the planet. So we have to count our lucky stars.

I always believed that my work should be unfinished in the sense that I encourage people to add their creativity to it, either conceptually or physically. Back in the 1960s, I was calling for 'Unfinished Music,' number one, and number two, with my artwork - I was taking unfinished work into the gallery. And that's how I was looking at it.

The war industry people are very together they know exactly what they want they don't even have to talk to each other. The peace industry people are just intellectuals who are very critical of each other... Unless the peace industry is powerful, we're always going to have war. It is as simple as that.
