I did not break up the Beatles. You can't have it both ways. If you're going to blame me for breaking the Beatles up, you should be thankful that I made them into myth rather than a crumbling group.

Give peace a chance and let's hope that one day we will all live in peace.

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.

Your private life is really very important for you. You know, all of us, you know.

People accuse artists of being narcissists - of course we are! If we don't like ourselves, who's going to like us?
Yoko Ono
Image
All women are feminists. Being a feminist is allowing woman to be natural, for what she is, whatever it is. All of us can be natural and we're all feminists in that sense.
Yoko Ono
Image
There's nothing bad about feminism. We have to help each other, because there's a lot of women in the world who are suffering because the fact is we're not equal. It's as plain as that. It's still a men's world. I don't know. We'll go on with it.

Japanese are very proud and workaholics. Proud workaholics.

Touch, touch, touch, touch me love, I'm shaking inside.

Hide until everybody goes home. Hide until everybody forgets about you. Hide until everybody dies.

Tape the sound of friends laughing together. Save it for a rainy day.
