More quotes by Yoko Ono
Listen to the sound of the earth turning.
Yoko Ono
I never went to art school and I never thought of going to an art school. It was just a way of manifesting these ideas I had. Ideas came to me that I needed to express.
Yoko Ono
I feel sad that he's just a voice now.
Yoko Ono
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
Society tells you that when you're old you have to retire. You have to defy that.
Yoko Ono
We don't have a particular organization, but we all want to make a world in which justice is given to each one of us.
Yoko Ono
Everything has complexity. Everything has simplicity. You just grab it.
Yoko Ono
When you burn the chair, you suddenly realize that the chair in your mind did not burn or disappear

I don't think you make a choice to be an artist. There was no decision for me. I've been expressing myself this way since I can remember.
Yoko Ono
We're growing up together, the human race. And we've discovered a lot of things that we didn't know. We're finding our way. Instead of thinking about doomsday all the time, think about how beautiful the world is. We're all together, and together we're getting wiser.
Yoko Ono
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
Confusion has become a state of mind, more of less we're trained to be confused. Quite simply, the people in power are keeping us down, keeping us docile and keeping us consuming with this confusion. It's a cultural confusion and it is deliberate.
Yoko Ono
People don't remember each tree in a park but all of us benefit from the trees. And in a way, artists are like trees in a park.
Yoko Ono
DJs are in incredible competition, musically. And they are the most musically creative and sensitive people in all the music charts. I am amazed how they are.
Yoko Ono
Women artists are still treated differently from men.
Yoko Ono
Distance doesn't exist, in fact, and neither does time. Vibrations from love or music can be felt everywhere, at all times.
Yoko Ono
Be silent in a group of people See what they reveal to you.
Yoko Ono
I thank Pussy Riot for standing firmly in their belief for Freedom of Expression, and making all women of the world proud to be women.
Yoko Ono
I realized that an artist seeking to tell the truth in her art takes great courage. I recognize the courage required to bring children together from Israeli and Palestinian communities to find commonality in music as a very powerful and effective beginning towards Peace.
Yoko Ono
People make music to get a reaction. Music is communication.
