More quotes by Yoko Ono
I did not break up the Beatles. You can't have it both ways. If you're going to blame me for breaking the Beatles up, you should be thankful that I made them into myth rather than a crumbling group.
Yoko Ono
Why do they cover Paul's songs but never mine?
Yoko Ono
In the Second World War, I was a little girl. I was evacuated in my country.
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
Beatles was 20th-century folksong in the framework of capitalism they couldn't do anything different if they wanted to communicate within that framework.
Yoko Ono
World peace is one project that we have to do together.
Yoko Ono
The only way you can better John is by copying him exactly.
Yoko Ono
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
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
Most people think that I am too optimistic, but my optimism is based on the thought that negative thinking is a luxury that we can't afford.
Yoko Ono
I respect Lady Gaga very much.
Yoko Ono
Every moment in our lives is a miracle we should enjoy instead of ignoring.
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'm very thankful that I can make people happy just by signing my name.
Yoko Ono
The art world was not initially really accepting my kind of work. I was ahead of my time.
Yoko Ono
Over 1,057,000 people have been killed by guns in the USA since John Lennon was shot and killed on 8 Dec 1980.
Yoko Ono
Even my mother told me: 'You are a handsome woman, but you're not pretty. Pretty girls don't have those big bones.'
Yoko Ono
A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.
Yoko Ono
My life was pretty rough.
Yoko Ono
To have world peace, we all have to have a healthy understanding of what is necessary to bring World Peace. It's not something that will be dropped on our laps. We have to work for it. Until we get World Peace, I think my strongest passion stays in the effort to get it.
Yoko Ono
