More quotes by Yoko Ono
Smile in the mirror. Do that every morning and you'll start to see a big difference in your life.
Yoko Ono
It's a waste of time to think that if you colored a painting red what might have happened if you painted it black.
Yoko Ono
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
The nice thing about the gallery shows is that without having to pay any money you can just go and see it.
Yoko Ono
There's nothing bad about feminism. We have to help each other, because there's a lot of women in the world who are suffering because the fact is we're not equal. It's as plain as that. It's still a men's world. I don't know. We'll go on with it.
Yoko Ono
Women are very intelligent and not appreciated. We try to pretend that we are not clever, and it's such a pity that we can't show how clever we are.
Yoko Ono
Music is like my security blanket.
Yoko Ono
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
Keep going until your efforts start to make things better in your hometown.
Yoko Ono
In the '60s, people were still very protective of each field that they belonged to. Avant-garde artists didn't know about rock or pop or jazz. And the jazz people of course didn't want to know about any other music. They were all just kind of protecting their territory.
Yoko Ono
All I can say is, it's not very easy for a woman to be associated with The Beatles.
Yoko Ono
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
I have only one life, so I want to make sure it's a good one.
Yoko Ono
We mustn't be traditional in the way we communicate with people - especially with the Establishment. We should surprise people by saying new things in an entirely new way. Communication of that sort can have a fantastic power so long as you don't do only what they expect you to do.
Yoko Ono
You know harmony only exists in music-isn't that amazing? I think that if you see earth from very far away, the color is blue. That is very interesting because blue is the color of communication.
Yoko Ono
It is very difficult for us to know we love somebody because it is an insecure position to be in. But in the end, it is important to be honest about your love because life is not that long.
Yoko Ono
Creativity is innate and it manifests itself in so many forms. It needs to come out somehow or it destroys you in some way.
Yoko Ono
Art for me is like breathing. When I stop breathing, what happens?
Yoko Ono
The regret of my life is that I have not said 'I love you' often enough.
Yoko Ono
The process is always the same. I get an inspiration for a new song, I put it down on paper immediately so I won't lose it. When I am ready to go to the studio with it, I play it a few times on the piano and edit, add, and type the lyrics and take it to the studio. Sometimes I don't have anything on paper.
