More quotes by Yoko Ono
I travel a lot, so when I arrive in a city, I like to go to good local bookshops and make a selection based on how I'm feeling and what I'm thinking. The book I pick usually seems to have a definite karmic connection!
Yoko Ono
When you say 'I love you', you are not just saying it to that person. You are saying 'I love you' to yourself, the planet & The Universe.
Yoko Ono
If your life changes, we can change the world, too.
Yoko Ono
When you are totally depressed, you should try giggling. Just make yourself laugh. Force yourself to laugh.
Yoko Ono
You should do something that will make your heart dance once a day. If you can't do that because you're too depressed, then do something that will make somebody else's heart dance.
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
After my husband John Lennon passed away, I tried to smile for my health.
Yoko Ono
I get very sad when I think about Vietnam where there seems to be no choice but violence. This violence goes on for centuries perpetuating itself.
Yoko Ono
If everybody thinks of something, then it will happen. Your mind is part of the universe. It is connected, you can use its energy.
Yoko Ono
I don't particularly consider myself just an artist. I'm a woman - I'm a human being.
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
In your head, a sunset can go on for days
Yoko Ono
I saw that nothing was permanent. You don't want to possess anything that is dear to you because you might lose it.
Yoko Ono
Mirror becomes a razor when it's broken. A stick becomes a flute when it's loved.
Yoko Ono
I thought art was a verb, rather than a noun.
Yoko Ono
Long, long time ago, I declared that all my works are a form of a prayer/a wish.
Yoko Ono
We don't have a particular organization, but we all want to make a world in which justice is given to each one of us.
Yoko Ono
I think that there is a sort of spiritual power that is translating into our bodies as we perform. Performers give, and giving is so important. It can heal. That is my experience, anyway.
Yoko Ono
Next time you meet a 'foreigner', remember it's only like a window with a different shape to it and the person who's sitting inside is you.
Yoko Ono
Cosmetics is a boon to every woman, but a girl's best beauty aid is still a near-sighted man.
