If a woman writes about a domestic situation, everyone automatically assumes that it's about her.
Yoko Ono
Image
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
Image
Long, long time ago, I declared that all my works are a form of a prayer/a wish.

Touch, touch, touch, touch me love, I'm shaking inside.

Many of my songs were dance orientated from way back. That's because I love dance! When I hear a dance number, just hearing the first eight bars, it immediately makes my bod start moving and dancing.

When I speak out against the guns or against the big corporations, some of my friends say, 'Oh Yoko, be careful. These people have all the power.' But, you know, most people don't speak out because they are frightened.

Sometimes I am happy and sometimes not. I am, after all, a human being, you know. And I am glad that we are sometimes happy and sometimes not. You get your wisdom working by having different emotions.
Yoko Ono

We are all dreamers creating the next world, the next beautiful world for ourselves and for our children.
Yoko Ono
Image
Every drop in the ocean counts.
Yoko Ono
Image
The 1960s were about releasing ourselves from conventional society and freeing ourselves.
Yoko Ono
Image
I think energy is the most important thing that we can give to people as performers. Anything else is a little bit pretentious. But energy is not.
Yoko Ono
Image
You change the world by being yourself.
Yoko Ono
Image
People accuse artists of being narcissists - of course we are! If we don't like ourselves, who's going to like us?
Yoko Ono
Image
I was born into a very important family in Japan. My grandfather was a descendant of the Emperor, and we were very wealthy.
Yoko Ono
Image
You can't dance if you got too much muck in your head.
Yoko Ono
Image
The universe is a space bigger than all of us we are part of.
Yoko Ono
Image
What all of us artists are doing is using our pain as material to create our work.
Yoko Ono
Image
I never want projects to be finished I have always believed in unfinished work. I got that from Schubert, you know, the 'Unfinished Symphony.'
Yoko Ono
