More quotes by Yoko Ono
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.
Yoko Ono
I relate to happiness as an ecstatic moment - something you don't create, you encounter.
Yoko Ono
Hide until everybody goes home. Hide until everybody forgets about you. Hide until everybody dies.
Yoko Ono
I'm not interested so much in collaboration. You see that from the history of my albums.
Yoko Ono
Sometimes the father feels pushed out because of the connection between the mother and the child.
Yoko Ono
Cosmetics is a boon to every woman, but a girl's best beauty aid is still a near-sighted man.
Yoko Ono
Music is like my security blanket. The first medium that I learned was music.
Yoko Ono
I never thought I would go into the dance charts.
Yoko Ono
I want to incite people to loosen their oppression by giving them something to work with, to build on. They shouldn't be frightened of creating themselves - that's why I make things very open, with things for people to do.
Yoko Ono
Art is like breathing for me. If I don't do it, I start to choke.
Yoko Ono
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
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
Watch the sun until it comes into your body and stays as a tiny sun. It will keep your face shining even in the coldest of winter.
Yoko Ono
I don't think you make a choice to be an artist. There was no decision for me. I've been expressing myself this way since I can remember.
Yoko Ono
If I hear dance music, my body starts to move. Whatever the dance music is, I can't help it. With all that, I still felt, well, rock is a little higher art, but it wasn't. Right now, because I have so much experience with dance charts, I started to realize that it's incredible art. This is going to be known one day as high art.
Yoko Ono
We mustn't be traditional in the way we communicate with people - especially with the Establishment. We should surprise people by saying new things in an entirely new way. Communication of that sort can have a fantastic power so long as you don't do only what they expect you to do.
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.
Yoko Ono
Use your blood to paint. Keep painting until you faint. Keep painting until you die.
Yoko Ono
These days, DJ's are the ones who are bringing fresh sounds to the music world. In fact, they are creating a new spatial music. They are the space transformers of the universe.
Yoko Ono
And the more you are active about something you love, the world is going to be a better place.
Yoko Ono
