I have the outsider's vision, which is creating wisdom I can share with the world. The fact that I am misunderstood has always given me an added impetus to work on communication to bridge the gap.

More quotes by Yoko Ono
Bless you for your jealousy it is a sign of empathy.
Yoko Ono
When you go through a negative situation, don’t think about it. Make it positive.
Yoko Ono
You can't always be in awe of someone's talent, living with them.
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
But think of the violence, it could happen to your kids.
Yoko Ono
All I can say is, it's not very easy for a woman to be associated with The Beatles.
Yoko Ono
I admire all people who are trying to be a good power in this chaotic world.
Yoko Ono
There's many women now who think, 'Surely we don't need feminism anymore, we're all liberated and society's accepting us as we are'. Which is just hogwash. It's not true at all.
Yoko Ono
Our thoughts determine our age.
Yoko Ono
I think something that's very important for us to communicate is usually very simple. Like breathing: Breathing is very simple. You don't do a dissonant 9th harmony or something in breathing. You just breathe, you know. I think that's how it is with very important messages.
Yoko Ono
Real success is doing things right every day by not forgetting to express love to your friends.
Yoko Ono
It is very difficult for us to know we love somebody because it is an insecure position to be in. But in the end, it is important to be honest about your love because life is not that long.
Yoko Ono
I don't particularly consider myself just an artist. I'm a woman - I'm a human being.
Yoko Ono
Everybody's an artist. Everybody's God. It's just that they're inhibited. I believe in people so much that if the whole of civilization is burned so we don't have any memory of it, even then people will start to build their own art. It is a necessity -- a function. We don't need history.
Yoko Ono
People are still thinking of solving problems by violence and war, and that has to stop.
Yoko Ono
Life with another person is always difficult.
Yoko Ono
Everyone is an artist and a genius, I think. If we don't choose to limit ourselves then we are totally accomplished.
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
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
I'm not interested so much in collaboration. You see that from the history of my albums.
Yoko Ono
