More quotes by Yoko Ono
The boats outside the window were always still I wondered if one of them would take me to the ocean.
Yoko Ono
When Orientals are attacked, they don't hit back.
Yoko Ono
We are all dreamers creating the next world, the next beautiful world for ourselves and for our children.
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
My father was a banker, but he was an independent spirit. He was a very good pianist and very much into music.
Yoko Ono
If you go back to all my albums, they're all confessional.
Yoko Ono
I never wanted to be a professional artist I think that's limiting.
Yoko Ono
Everyone is an artist and a genius, I think. If we don't choose to limit ourselves then we are totally accomplished.
Yoko Ono
We artists have the dignity to tell the truth to the people, unlike politicians.
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
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
People accuse artists of being narcissists - of course we are! If we don't like ourselves, who's going to like us?
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
I admire all people who are trying to be a good power in this chaotic world.
Yoko Ono
Give death announcements each time you move instead of giving announcements of the change of address. Send the same when you die.
Yoko Ono
When you're imagining peace, you can't kill anyone. That's good isn't it?
Yoko Ono
The amazing thing is that we could live in the world together peacefully, feed the world, shelter the world. We have that capability both spiritually and technologically.
Yoko Ono
I realized that if my thoughts immediately affect my body, I should be careful about what I think. Now if I get angry, I ask myself why I feel that way. If I can find the source of my anger, I can turn that negative energy into something positive.
Yoko Ono
When you are totally depressed, you should try giggling. Just make yourself laugh. Force yourself to laugh.
Yoko Ono
I never thought, I'm going to be an artist. When I actually began to become successful in the art world I made it a point to say, 'I am a dilettante, I am not a professional artist, which is true.
Yoko Ono
