Quote

When I hear music, my body just starts to move. It has nothing to do with training or anything. That's just me. That's just my body. And I was like that as a child, too.

There's a long life ahead of you and it's going to be beautiful, as long as you keep loving and hugging each other.
Yoko Ono
Image
Creativity is innate and it manifests itself in so many forms. It needs to come out somehow or it destroys you in some way.
Yoko Ono

Not being appreciated for 40 years or something ... It feels like I was accused of something that I didn't do, which was breaking up the Beatles. That was like being somebody who is in prison without having done anything wrong.

Dance in your dream. Go out into the street and hug everyone you meet. Tell them how beautiful they are. Dance together.

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.

Confusion has become a state of mind, more of less we're trained to be confused. Quite simply, the people in power are keeping us down, keeping us docile and keeping us consuming with this confusion. It's a cultural confusion and it is deliberate.
Yoko Ono

All I can say is, it's not very easy for a woman to be associated with The Beatles.

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
Image
It is sad that the air is the only thing we share. No matter how close we get to each other, there is always air between us.
Yoko Ono
Image
At least I had that, one guy understood me.
Yoko Ono

I'm very thankful that I can make people happy just by signing my name.

One day, the dance charts will be the biggest chart in the music world. Because we all need to dance. This planet will be a fun planet when the judges in court will end the day with a dance!

Smile to the future and it will smile back to you

Hide until everybody goes home. Hide until everybody forgets about you. Hide until everybody dies.

You may think I’m small, but I have a universe inside my mind.

Image
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.

You can't always measure the effects of activist work you just have to wish and pray that the message gets through.
