You should do something that will make your heart dance once a day. If you can't do that because you're too depressed, then do something that will make somebody else's heart dance.

More quotes by Yoko Ono
The only way you can better John is by copying him exactly.
Yoko Ono
To have world peace, we all have to have a healthy understanding of what is necessary to bring World Peace. It's not something that will be dropped on our laps. We have to work for it. Until we get World Peace, I think my strongest passion stays in the effort to get it.
Yoko Ono
Smile in the mirror. Do that every morning and you'll start to see a big difference in your life.
Yoko Ono
True artists are prophets. I don't want to be that prophetic in that sense because it's so lonely.
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
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
What is beauty? It's what you love.
Yoko Ono
The cynicism that you have is not your real soul.
Yoko Ono
Our public officials have forgotten that they are ultimately accountable to the people who put them in office, that the information they keep in secrecy belongs to all of us. Julian Assange took a courageous step by rightfully returning what belongs to the public domain. For that reason, I believe we need to stand behind him.
Yoko Ono
Your private life is really very important for you. You know, all of us, you know.
Yoko Ono
I thought art was a verb, rather than a noun.
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
I see so many activists... who are artists because they feel that they have the power of communication.
Yoko Ono
I really feel that artists or musicians are controversial people. Controversy is part of the nature of art and creativity. If people are not doing that, they're not artists - they're artisans.
Yoko Ono
People make music to get a reaction. Music is communication.
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
These days, DJ's are the ones who are bringing fresh sounds to the music world. In fact, they are creating a new spatial music. They are the space transformers of the universe.
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
Some people are old at 18 and some are young at 90. Time is a concept that humans created.
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.
