More quotes by Yoko Ono
All I can say is, it's not very easy for a woman to be associated with The Beatles.
Yoko Ono
Controversy is part of the nature of art and creativity.
Yoko Ono
I think people place limitations on each other and on ourselves. There is a great fear of expressing ourselves, of making creativity happen.
Yoko Ono
Energy is so important. If you don't have it, don't bother with rock and roll.
Yoko Ono
I have a woman inside my soul.
Yoko Ono
Luckily we never injected because both of us were totally scared about needles. So that probably saved us. And the other thing that saved us was our connection was not very good.
Yoko Ono
You know harmony only exists in music-isn't that amazing? I think that if you see earth from very far away, the color is blue. That is very interesting because blue is the color of communication.
Yoko Ono
Art for me is like breathing. When I stop breathing, what happens?
Yoko Ono
I don't particularly consider myself just an artist. I'm a woman - I'm a human being.
Yoko Ono
What all of us artists are doing is using our pain as material to create our work.
Yoko Ono
The male society is letting the men think of the women as something pretty and soft and that kind of thing. So I just wanted to show what we were. Women are the ones who actually created the human race. I mean without us bringing up the new generation, there wouldn't be a human race.
Yoko Ono
We don't read people's wishes. The wishes are suppose to be direct communication to the Universe. Your interception will weaken the power of the wish.
Yoko Ono
I'm a very obsessive type. If I do get into it, I'll soon be there 12 hours a day. I just don't want to do that.
Yoko Ono
I just go with the flow, so any style can be in my music - that makes it exciting.
Yoko Ono
Being alone is very difficult.
Yoko Ono
Everybody's an artist. Everybody's God. It's just that they're inhibited.
Yoko Ono
I don't think you should always stay calm in a tense situation, because you might not ever confront the problem. Maybe it's better to actually let yourself be tense - and find a solution.
Yoko Ono
In the '60s, people were still very protective of each field that they belonged to. Avant-garde artists didn't know about rock or pop or jazz. And the jazz people of course didn't want to know about any other music. They were all just kind of protecting their territory.
Yoko Ono
Art for me is like breathing.
Yoko Ono
What is beauty? It's what you love.
Yoko Ono
