I don't think you should always stay calm in a tense situation, because you might not ever confront the problem. Maybe it's better to actually let yourself be tense - and find a solution.

More quotes by 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
The people have got to trust in themselves.
Yoko Ono
I never wanted to be a professional artist I think that's limiting.
Yoko Ono
The universe is a space bigger than all of us we are part of.
Yoko Ono
Everybody's an artist. Everybody's God. It's just that they're inhibited. I believe in people so much that if the whole of civilization is burned so we don't have any memory of it, even then people will start to build their own art. It is a necessity -- a function. We don't need history.
Yoko Ono
I'm not interested so much in collaboration. You see that from the history of my albums.
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
I get very sad when I think about Vietnam where there seems to be no choice but violence. This violence goes on for centuries perpetuating itself.
Yoko Ono
What a beautiful future it will be! Don't worry about life being boring. It will never be.
Yoko Ono
Give peace a chance and let's hope that one day we will all live in peace.
Yoko Ono
My husband John Lennon was a very special man. A man of humble origin, he brought light and hope to the whole world with his words and music.
Yoko Ono
There's a big difference between sending your art in a statement or something like that, and sending yourself there. When you send yourself somewhere, then you are sharing your information uncontrollably - like all yourself.
Yoko Ono
We’ve been filled with great treasure for one purpose: to be spilled.
Yoko Ono
If people want to make war they should make a color war, and paint each others’ cities up in the night in pinks and greens.
Yoko Ono
The sky is always there for me, while my life has been going through many, many changes. When I look up the sky, it gives me a nice feeling, like looking at an old friend.
Yoko Ono
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.
Yoko Ono
Try to say nothing negative about anybody for three days, for forty-five days, for three months. See what happens to your life.
Yoko Ono
And the more you are active about something you love, the world is going to be a better place.
Yoko Ono
I'm free from holding personal anger because I can express what I want through my music.
Yoko Ono
People accuse artists of being narcissists - of course we are! If we don't like ourselves, who's going to like us?
