I'm not the kind of woman who would love to make soup or knit sweaters. I never cherished that so much.

More quotes by Yoko Ono
Music is like my security blanket.
Yoko Ono
Listen to the sound of the earth turning.
Yoko Ono
You know, something happened to me when I became 70. I started to feel a tremendous love for the human race, and life and this planet, the universe, the whole shebang.
Yoko Ono
The only way you can better John is by copying him exactly.
Yoko Ono
Women have become stronger, and there's a backlash. Men have become terribly possessive. I find it much easier to get on with women.
Yoko Ono
Music is like my security blanket. The first medium that I learned was music.
Yoko Ono
Our thoughts determine our age.
Yoko Ono
People don't remember each tree in a park but all of us benefit from the trees. And in a way, artists are like trees in a park.
Yoko Ono
I don't particularly consider myself just an artist. I'm a woman - I'm a human being.
Yoko Ono
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.
Yoko Ono
Rather than deal with problems in relationships, I've always moved on. That's why I'm one of the very few survivors as a woman, you know.
Yoko Ono
I always believed that my work should be unfinished in the sense that I encourage people to add their creativity to it, either conceptually or physically. Back in the 1960s, I was calling for 'Unfinished Music,' number one, and number two, with my artwork - I was taking unfinished work into the gallery. And that's how I was looking at it.
Yoko Ono
We're growing up together, the human race. And we've discovered a lot of things that we didn't know. We're finding our way. Instead of thinking about doomsday all the time, think about how beautiful the world is. We're all together, and together we're getting wiser.
Yoko Ono
Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence. Summer passes and one remembers one's exuberance. Autumn passes and one remembers one's reverence. Winter passes and one remembers one's perseverance.
Yoko Ono
The human race is a very, very magical race. We have a magic power of witches and wizards. We're here on this earth to unravel the mystery of this planet. The planet is asking for it.
Yoko Ono
Give death announcements each time you move instead of giving announcements of the change of address. Send the same when you die.
Yoko Ono
If you have a slave around the house how can you expect to make a revolution outside it? The problem for women is that if we try to be free, then we naturally become lonely, because so many women are willing to become slaves, and men usually prefer that.
Yoko Ono
I'm not interested so much in collaboration. You see that from the history of my albums.
Yoko Ono
I'm just trying to do my best every day, hoping that I have done my best every day, and its very easy in a way, but also it's not that easy. Every day counts.
Yoko Ono
What is beauty? It's what you love.
Yoko Ono
