More quotes by Yoko Ono
Sometimes I have compared myself with a scientist or something: when you discover something and you don't expect the whole world to understand it. I always thought I was doing that kind of activity, in art and in music too.
Yoko Ono
What all of us artists are doing is using our pain as material to create our work.
Yoko Ono
We get shy about saying things like I love you. Life is so short. It's crazy, that we hesitate to express our true thoughts to each other.
Yoko Ono
I trust myself. You need that to survive.
Yoko Ono
Most people think that I am too optimistic, but my optimism is based on the thought that negative thinking is a luxury that we can't afford.
Yoko Ono
I always thought that I was an important musician. If you don't have that confidence, why would you go on and do it?
Yoko Ono
The male society is letting the men think of the women as something pretty and soft and that kind of thing. So I just wanted to show what we were. Women are the ones who actually created the human race. I mean without us bringing up the new generation, there wouldn't be a human race.
Yoko Ono
Controversy is part of the nature of art and creativity.
Yoko Ono
Nobody's life is a bed of roses. We all have crosses to bear and we all just do our best.
Yoko Ono
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
People just love to be entertained, and in order to entertain them, you have to do things in a way that they understand.
Yoko Ono
You are beautiful. Don't ever think you are not. It may be such a compliment that does not come from a man too often. They are shy, proud, and rude. Give yourself some love. And walk as what you are - a beautiful woman. All your life.
Yoko Ono
Next time you meet a 'foreigner', remember it's only like a window with a different shape to it and the person who's sitting inside is you.
Yoko Ono
We are very lucky really, because we can create our own reality, John [Lennon] and me, but we know the important thing is to communicate with other people.
Yoko Ono
Art for me is like breathing. When I stop breathing, what happens?
Yoko Ono
Marriage is a gamble, let's be honest.
Yoko Ono
Money is not everything. We don't need billions and trillions of dollars.
Yoko Ono
Imagine the clouds dripping Dig a hole in your garden to put them in
Yoko Ono
Society tells you that when you're old you have to retire. You have to defy that.
Yoko Ono
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
