Quote

I'm into indie music. I think indie is going to bring back the spirit in music. There was a time when it was all about accommodating the music business, the music was getting tasteless, but the spirit is back.

Life keeps getting better. If anything, you start to carry a certain pride in having survived all those years.

There's nothing bad about feminism. We have to help each other, because there's a lot of women in the world who are suffering because the fact is we're not equal. It's as plain as that. It's still a men's world. I don't know. We'll go on with it.

We need to really do something about the world. Otherwise, we're all going to blow up together.

I think I'm an observer in a way. And my life was not so - well, my life was bad too - but it's just that I had the sense to cope with it. But it's probably not that easy to cope if you're in a society where you get killed when your husband dies.

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.

Sometimes the father feels pushed out because of the connection between the mother and the child.
Yoko Ono

The cynicism that you have is not your real soul.
Yoko Ono
Image
I think people place limitations on each other and on ourselves. There is a great fear of expressing ourselves, of making creativity happen.

People say that this new generation is so used to the Internet that their heads are already different. They can't read a book from beginning to end. That is not a tragedy. The book changes form.

Art is like breathing for me. If I don't do it, I start to choke.

The universe is a space bigger than all of us we are part of.

I relate to happiness as an ecstatic moment - something you don't create, you encounter.

Is truth always positive? Of course. Once the truth comes out, you know, it's all right. We're scared that if the truth comes out that it's not all right. It's the other way around.

Fracking kills, and it doesn't just kill us. It kills the land, nature and, eventually, the whole world.

I see so many activists... who are artists because they feel that they have the power of communication.
