Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence. Summer passes and one remembers one's exuberance. Autumn passes and one remembers one's reverence. Winter passes and one remembers one's perseverance.

The only way you can better John is by copying him exactly.

If you have a slave around the house how can you expect to make a revolution outside it? The problem for women is that if we try to be free, then we naturally become lonely, because so many women are willing to become slaves, and men usually prefer that.

We’ve been filled with great treasure for one purpose: to be spilled.
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.

When people don't understand my work, I don't feel like explaining.

If I hear dance music, my body starts to move. Whatever the dance music is, I can't help it. With all that, I still felt, well, rock is a little higher art, but it wasn't. Right now, because I have so much experience with dance charts, I started to realize that it's incredible art. This is going to be known one day as high art.

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.

Fracking is an incredible risk to the human race, I don't know why they even thought of doing it.
Yoko Ono
Image
If your life changes, we can change the world, too.
Yoko Ono
Image
If your judgement is clouded, you must be carrying too many things which are being a burden to you.
Yoko Ono
Image
What the Beatles did was something incredible, it was more than what a band could do. We have to give them respect.
Yoko Ono
Image
I started to notice that simpleness is divine. I think we all start trying to use very complex harmonies and rhythms and all that because of a certain kind of ambition. But I was always trying to create something simple.
Yoko Ono
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I think energy is the most important thing that we can give to people as performers. Anything else is a little bit pretentious. But energy is not.
Yoko Ono

We need to really do something about the world. Otherwise, we're all going to blow up together.
