Image
We artists have the dignity to tell the truth to the people, unlike politicians.
Yoko Ono
Image
The universe is a space bigger than all of us we are part of.
Yoko Ono
Image
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
Image
Remember, each one of us has the power to change the world. Just start thinking peace, and the message will spread quicker than you think.
Yoko Ono
Image
Countries have lost their culture because what they wanted was money. Money became the running theme in every country and culture was sacrificed.
Yoko Ono
Image
When I speak out against the guns or against the big corporations, some of my friends say, 'Oh Yoko, be careful. These people have all the power.' But, you know, most people don't speak out because they are frightened.
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
Give death announcements each time you move instead of giving announcements of the change of address. Send the same when you die.

When you burn the chair, you suddenly realize that the chair in your mind did not burn or disappear
Yoko Ono
Image
The regret of my life is that I have not said 'I love you' often enough.
Yoko Ono
Image
My husband John Lennon was a very special man. A man of humble origin, he brought light and hope to the whole world with his words and music.
Yoko Ono
Image
The art world was not initially really accepting my kind of work. I was ahead of my time.
Yoko Ono
Image
Art is an effort to make you walk a half an inch above ground.
Yoko Ono
Image
I saw that nothing was permanent. You don't want to possess anything that is dear to you because you might lose it.
Yoko Ono
Image
Tell the Earth how much you care, how beautiful she is, and how much you love her. Ask for her forgiveness for having been so careless.
Yoko Ono
Image
If a woman writes about a domestic situation, everyone automatically assumes that it's about her.
Yoko Ono
Image
Cosmetics is a boon to every woman, but a girl's best beauty aid is still a near-sighted man.
Yoko Ono
Image
All wishes create an upswing line when it is manifested. Therefore, together, it becomes an incredible upswing of power, whatever you wished. Of course, the more high level wishes, which covers the whole human race is stronger than wishing for getting ice cream for your dessert!
Yoko Ono
Image
Everybody's an artist. Everybody's God. It's just that they're inhibited. I believe in people so much that if the whole of civilization is burned so we don't have any memory of it, even then people will start to build their own art. It is a necessity -- a function. We don't need history.

People are still thinking of solving problems by violence and war, and that has to stop.
