Loneliness is equal to the radius of one's awareness.
Yoko Ono
Image
We don't read people's wishes. The wishes are suppose to be direct communication to the Universe. Your interception will weaken the power of the wish.
Yoko Ono
Image
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.
Yoko Ono
Image
I think people place limitations on each other and on ourselves. There is a great fear of expressing ourselves, of making creativity happen.

Money is not everything. We don't need billions and trillions of dollars.
Yoko Ono
Image
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.

Image
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.

I did not break up the Beatles. You can't have it both ways. If you're going to blame me for breaking the Beatles up, you should be thankful that I made them into myth rather than a crumbling group.

A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.
Yoko Ono
Image
You can't love someone unless you are in an equal position with them. A lot of women have to cling to men out of fear or insecurity, and that's not love - basically that's why women hate men.
Yoko Ono
Image
Controversy is part of the nature of art and creativity.
Yoko Ono
Image
Try to say nothing negative about anybody for three days, for forty-five days, for three months. See what happens to your life.
Yoko Ono
Image
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.

Cosmetics is a boon to every woman, but a girl's best beauty aid is still a near-sighted man.
Yoko Ono
Image
My work was not embraced for many decades. I would have killed myself if getting embraced affected me so much.
Yoko Ono
Image
Perhaps one feels more pain when parents are there. It's like when you're hungry, you know, it's worse to get a symbol of a cheeseburger than no cheeseburger at all. It doesn't do you any good, you know.
Yoko Ono
Image
I think if you give in and accept society's stereotypes, then you start thinking, 'I cannot dance till late at night because I'm 70.'
Yoko Ono
Image
John wrote with a very deep love for the human race and a concern for its future.
Yoko Ono
Image
The opposite of love is fear, not hate.

Being alone is very difficult.
