When I turned 60, it didn't bother me at all.
Yoko Ono
Image
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
Image
Losing my daughter was a very serious pain. There was always some empty space in my heart.
Yoko Ono
Image
I want to incite people to loosen their oppression by giving them something to work with, to build on. They shouldn't be frightened of creating themselves - that's why I make things very open, with things for people to do.
Yoko Ono

You are beautiful. Don't ever think you are not. It may be such a compliment that does not come from a man too often. They are shy, proud, and rude. Give yourself some love. And walk as what you are - a beautiful woman. All your life.

Be kind once a day - even if it's just in your mind.
Yoko Ono
Image
Listen to the sound of the earth turning.
Yoko Ono
Image
We get shy about saying things like I love you. Life is so short. It's crazy, that we hesitate to express our true thoughts to each other.
Yoko Ono
Image
True artists are prophets. I don't want to be that prophetic in that sense because it's so lonely.
Yoko Ono
Image
After my husband John Lennon passed away, I tried to smile for my health.
Yoko Ono
Image
I always thought that I was an important musician. If you don't have that confidence, why would you go on and do it?
Yoko Ono
Image
When you go on a stage, before you go on a stage you're really scared and you're really frightened. You don't know what to do. Why did I say yes to this? But once you're on the stage you think, Okay.
Yoko Ono
Image
The Beatles were a group made up of four very complex men, and my small hand could not have broken these men up.
Yoko Ono
Image
I'm not interested so much in collaboration. You see that from the history of my albums.
Yoko Ono
Image
We don't live by just sleeping and eating. We need pride and dignity in our lives. Work gives you that.
