Yoko Ono
When I'm putting some communication out on Twitter or Facebook or Instagram, I think that it's helping me, my brain, you know, because it's always somehow stimulated by people who are sending things to me. And it works both ways. It's great. My brain is very happy about it.
Yoko Ono
True artists are prophets. I don't want to be that prophetic in that sense because it's so lonely.
Yoko Ono

Music is like my security blanket.
Yoko Ono
When I was 4 years old my mother put me into an early music education school. That's where they taught you perfect pitch and harmony and how to write music and all that. At that time, one of the homeworks was to listen to all the sounds and the noise of a day and transfer that into musical notes.
Yoko Ono

Yoko Ono
