More quotes by Yoko Ono
Stand in the evening light until you become transparent or until you fall asleep.
Yoko Ono
There's a long life ahead of you and it's going to be beautiful, as long as you keep loving and hugging each other.
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
Money is not everything. We don't need billions and trillions of dollars.
Yoko Ono
Women artists are still treated differently from men.
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
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
People make music to get a reaction. Music is communication.
Yoko Ono
The only instrument I can play is piano. Whenever I make songs at home, I play the piano and make them on the piano.
Yoko Ono
The 1960s were about releasing ourselves from conventional society and freeing ourselves.
Yoko Ono
After my husband John Lennon passed away, I tried to smile for my health.
Yoko Ono
In the '60s we fought for peace, when the Vietnam war was on. We were against the cops and against the politicians, and there was a lot of waving banners and all that. And I think in a way, just as they were enjoying that machoism of war, we were enjoying the machismo of being anti-war, you know?
Yoko Ono
I don't think you make a choice to be an artist. There was no decision for me. I've been expressing myself this way since I can remember.
Yoko Ono
Artists and musicians of the Sixties were definitely into clothes.
Yoko Ono
I just go with the flow, so any style can be in my music - that makes it exciting.
Yoko Ono
You can't always measure the effects of activist work you just have to wish and pray that the message gets through.
Yoko Ono
The first idea, the first art piece I ever did, was when I was four. I cut the seed of a pear in half and the seed of an apple in half in put those two halves together and planted the seed, hoping a very strange tree might grow. And I never stopped.
Yoko Ono
I trust in my inspiration, really, and that's difficult because sometimes you would rather be technical. And once you empty your mind, empty your brain, it's really incredible. I'm very caring about things that dash into my brain, and I make sure I don't just clog it.
Yoko Ono
In a way the new music showed things could be transformed by new channels of communication.
Yoko Ono
Women are put in a position of feeling embarrassed about their bodies. It's so ridiculous, but also astounding - we have to always be apologetic about having created the human race.
Yoko Ono
