I want to incite people to loosen their oppression by giving them something to work with, to build on. They shouldn't be frightened of creating themselves - that's why I make things very open, with things for people to do.
Yoko Ono

This society is driven by neurotic speed and force accelerated by greed and frustration of not being able to live up to the image of men and woman we have created for ourselves the image has nothing to do with the reality of people.
Yoko Ono

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.

In the present age when communication is so rapid, we should create a different tradition, traditions are created everyday. Five years now is like 100 years before. We are living in a society that has no history. There’s no precedent for this kind of society so we can break the old patterns.

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.

The art world was not initially really accepting my kind of work. I was ahead of my time.

When you burn the chair, you suddenly realize that the chair in your mind did not burn or disappear

Performance art is going to be the future. Plays on Broadway are so restricted. But performance art is like haikus, just one line thing. And it's more casual but more interesting.

If a woman writes about a domestic situation, everyone automatically assumes that it's about her.
Yoko Ono

If you go back to all my albums, they're all confessional.

What is beauty? It's what you love.

Please know that being 80 is not a scary thing. When you're 80, your life is much freer.

Women have become stronger, and there's a backlash. Men have become terribly possessive. I find it much easier to get on with women.
