My father was a banker, but he was an independent spirit. He was a very good pianist and very much into music.
Yoko Ono
John would have been the first white rapper. And also he would have cherished the Internet.
Yoko Ono
Life keeps getting better. If anything, you start to carry a certain pride in having survived all those years.

Yoko Ono
All my concerts had no sounds in them they were completely silent. People had to make up their own music in their minds!
Yoko Ono
Some people don't listen to my music because they say that I am an artist. And some don't want to go to my gallery shows, because they say I am a musician.

Yoko Ono
I relate to happiness as an ecstatic moment - something you don't create, you encounter.
Yoko Ono
Nobody's life is a bed of roses. We all have crosses to bear, and we all just do our best. I would never claim to have the worst situation. There are many widows, and many people dying of AIDS, many people killed in Lebanon, people starving all over the planet. So we have to count our lucky stars.
