More quotes by Yoko Ono
The opposite of love is fear, not hate.
Yoko Ono
When you go to war, both sides lose totally.
Yoko Ono
I don't work for a long time on anything. I don't have too much time in life.
Yoko Ono
Even my mother told me: 'You are a handsome woman, but you're not pretty. Pretty girls don't have those big bones.'
Yoko Ono
Life with another person is always difficult.
Yoko Ono
People say that this new generation is so used to the Internet that their heads are already different. They can't read a book from beginning to end. That is not a tragedy. The book changes form.
Yoko Ono
In the '60s we fought for peace, when the Vietnam war was on. We were against the cops and against the politicians, and there was a lot of waving banners and all that. And I think in a way, just as they were enjoying that machoism of war, we were enjoying the machismo of being anti-war, you know?
Yoko Ono
Use your blood to paint. Keep painting until you faint. Keep painting until you die.
Yoko Ono
To have world peace, we all have to have a healthy understanding of what is necessary to bring World Peace. It's not something that will be dropped on our laps. We have to work for it. Until we get World Peace, I think my strongest passion stays in the effort to get it.
Yoko Ono
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
You can't always measure the effects of activist work you just have to wish and pray that the message gets through.
Yoko Ono
I travel a lot, so when I arrive in a city, I like to go to good local bookshops and make a selection based on how I'm feeling and what I'm thinking. The book I pick usually seems to have a definite karmic connection!
Yoko Ono
I never wanted to be a professional artist I think that's limiting.
Yoko Ono
In a way the new music showed things could be transformed by new channels of communication.
Yoko Ono
Why do they cover Paul's songs but never mine?
Yoko Ono
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
Love is an incredibly strong thing, it goes everywhere, it's like water, you can't stop it. Love, once you have it, once you create a kind of pathway for it to come out, it just keeps on coming out.
Yoko Ono
When people get cynical about love, they should look at us [Yoko and John Lennon] and see it is possible
Yoko Ono
Bad stories are written about me because the press knows they can make me into a weeping dog and few people will object.
Yoko Ono
Marriage is a difficult project. When seven years have passed and all your body's cells have been replaced, you're meant to experience that seven-year itch.
Yoko Ono
