More quotes by Yoko Ono
If you have too many quotes from other people in your head, you can't create. You have to keep your head empty. That's why I am constantly enjoying the sky, the park, the walk.
Yoko Ono
What a beautiful future it will be! Don't worry about life being boring. It will never be.
Yoko Ono
Losing my daughter was a very serious pain. There was always some empty space in my heart.
Yoko Ono
It's always good to do something that is not a repeat. I just don't believe in repeating.
Yoko Ono
Faces can lie. Backsides can't.
Yoko Ono
Power is not something we should be afraid of. Power is great, power is energy. And in terms of energy, the most important energy is human spiritual energy and when I say spiritual, I feel like have to be very careful, I don't mean religious, I mean the energy of the mind, the energy that exists within us.
Yoko Ono

I get very nervous before I get on the stage, but once I'm on the stage, I'm just, you know, me. Nothing hurts me.
Yoko Ono

Yoko Ono
Some people don't listen to my music because they say that I am an artist. And some don't want to go to my gallery shows, because they say I am a musician.
Yoko Ono
I just like to explore all sorts of different forms - no, 'explore' is not even the word - enjoy. You don't want to limit yourself to a particular form.
Yoko Ono
Being alone is very difficult.
Yoko Ono
Events are the best teacher for us. You try to learn from people, there is always some bend to it.
Yoko Ono
Hide until everybody goes home. Hide until everybody forgets about you. Hide until everybody dies.
Yoko Ono
Fracking is an incredible risk to the human race, I don't know why they even thought of doing it.
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
Sometimes I have compared myself with a scientist or something: when you discover something and you don't expect the whole world to understand it. I always thought I was doing that kind of activity, in art and in music too.
Yoko Ono
Kill all the men you have slept with. Put the bones in a box and send it into the sea with flowers.
