More quotes by Yoko Ono
My work was not embraced for many decades. I would have killed myself if getting embraced affected me so much.
Yoko Ono
I never thought, I'm going to be an artist. When I actually began to become successful in the art world I made it a point to say, 'I am a dilettante, I am not a professional artist, which is true.
Yoko Ono
I think of John every day. I do try to block it, but December 8th is not the only day I think of him.
Yoko Ono
I see so many activists... who are artists because they feel that they have the power of communication.
Yoko Ono
Losing my daughter was a very serious pain. There was always some empty space in my heart.
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
Fracking is an incredible risk to the human race, I don't know why they even thought of doing it.
Yoko Ono
When I was four years old, my mother put me into a school for early music education where you get perfect pitch and harmony and composition.
Yoko Ono
See what you can do. See what you want to do. See what you will do about it. Find your way out.
Yoko Ono
Women artists are still treated differently from men.
Yoko Ono
The Establishment likes people who take no responsibility and cannot respect themselves.
Yoko Ono
Society tells you that when you're old you have to retire. You have to defy that.
Yoko Ono
I realized that if my thoughts immediately affect my body, I should be careful about what I think. Now if I get angry, I ask myself why I feel that way. If I can find the source of my anger, I can turn that negative energy into something positive.
Yoko Ono
I'm not giving any guidance, OK. I mean, you know, mothers are not supposed to give guidance, right? Anyway, so he's [Sean] doing his own thing.
Yoko Ono
I wonder why men get serious at all. They have this delicate, long thing hanging outside their bodies which goes up and down by its own will. If I were a man I would always be laughing at myself.
Yoko Ono
The sky is always there for me, while my life has been going through many, many changes. When I look up the sky, it gives me a nice feeling, like looking at an old friend.
Yoko Ono
Perhaps one feels more pain when parents are there. It's like when you're hungry, you know, it's worse to get a symbol of a cheeseburger than no cheeseburger at all. It doesn't do you any good, you know.
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
The computer is my favourite invention. I feel lucky to be part of the global village. I don't mean to brag, but I'm so fast with technology. People think it all seems too much, but we'll get used to it. I'm sure it all seemed too much when we were learning to walk.
Yoko Ono
I'm a politician. Politics is just a convenience for our life and we just have to create a beautiful world together that would be very convenient for us and just enjoyable.
