The whole world is starting to realize that it was the most unwise thing for our society to have ignored women power, to run the society with male priorities.

You can't dance if you got too much muck in your head.
Yoko Ono
Image
You change the world by being yourself.
Yoko Ono
Image
The process is always the same. I get an inspiration for a new song, I put it down on paper immediately so I won't lose it. When I am ready to go to the studio with it, I play it a few times on the piano and edit, add, and type the lyrics and take it to the studio. Sometimes I don't have anything on paper.

Image
In the Second World War, I was a little girl. I was evacuated in my country.
Yoko Ono
Image
I think I'm an observer in a way. And my life was not so - well, my life was bad too - but it's just that I had the sense to cope with it. But it's probably not that easy to cope if you're in a society where you get killed when your husband dies.

The nice thing about the gallery shows is that without having to pay any money you can just go and see it.
Yoko Ono
Image
My heart is mysteriously alive in the world of sounds - a totally different dimension from the daily life.
Yoko Ono
Image
I love to work. Doing things we love is how we relax, I think.
Yoko Ono
Image
I don't work for a long time on anything. I don't have too much time in life.
Yoko Ono
Image
My beauty secret is... nothing! I don't drink too much water. I don't eat very well. Sometimes I cheat and grab some chocolate. The best thing is to eat what you want, but not very much.
Yoko Ono
Image
All my life, I have been in love with the sky. Even when everything was falling apart around me, the sky was always there for me.
Yoko Ono
Image
We mustn't be traditional in the way we communicate with people - especially with the Establishment. We should surprise people by saying new things in an entirely new way. Communication of that sort can have a fantastic power so long as you don't do only what they expect you to do.
Yoko Ono
Image
John wrote with a very deep love for the human race and a concern for its future.
Yoko Ono
Image
Nobody's life is a bed of roses. We all have crosses to bear, and we all just do our best. I would never claim to have the worst situation. There are many widows, and many people dying of AIDS, many people killed in Lebanon, people starving all over the planet. So we have to count our lucky stars.
Yoko Ono
Image
I'm a very obsessive type. If I do get into it, I'll soon be there 12 hours a day. I just don't want to do that.
Yoko Ono
Image
I am the type of person who would do something thoroughly if someone said, I don't think you can do it. I am extremely rebellious. I have this strong, defiant spirit.
Yoko Ono
Image
Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence.
Yoko Ono
Image
We don't read people's wishes. The wishes are suppose to be direct communication to the Universe. Your interception will weaken the power of the wish.
Yoko Ono
Image
I never wanted to be a professional artist I think that's limiting.
Yoko Ono

When I turned 60, it didn't bother me at all.
