You can be very wild and still be very wise

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 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.

You know, something happened to me when I became 70. I started to feel a tremendous love for the human race, and life and this planet, the universe, the whole shebang.
Yoko Ono

Why do they cover Paul's songs but never mine?
Yoko Ono

John wrote with a very deep love for the human race and a concern for its future.
Yoko Ono

My life has always been unplanned. So when something comes along, I feel like, Why not give it a try? It's fun to experiment like that.
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.

Love is what I give to the one I love.
