More quotes by Yoko Ono
Society tells you that when you're old you have to retire. You have to defy that.
Yoko Ono
Tape the sound of friends laughing together. Save it for a rainy day.
Yoko Ono
Women artists are still treated differently from men.
Yoko Ono
There are things you can never take, no matter how strong you are.
Yoko Ono
People think that their world will get smaller as they get older. My experience is just the opposite. Your senses become more acute. You start to blossom.
Yoko Ono
I realized that if my thoughts immediately affect my body, I should be careful about what I think. Now if I get angry, I ask myself why I feel that way. If I can find the source of my anger, I can turn that negative energy into something positive.
Yoko Ono
We need to really do something about the world. Otherwise, we're all going to blow up together.
Yoko Ono
Dance in your dream. Go out into the street and hug everyone you meet. Tell them how beautiful they are. Dance together.
Yoko Ono
Women have become stronger, and there's a backlash. Men have become terribly possessive. I find it much easier to get on with women.
Yoko Ono
Hide until everybody goes home. Hide until everybody forgets about you. Hide until everybody dies.
Yoko Ono
And the more you are active about something you love, the world is going to be a better place.
Yoko Ono
Our public officials have forgotten that they are ultimately accountable to the people who put them in office, that the information they keep in secrecy belongs to all of us. Julian Assange took a courageous step by rightfully returning what belongs to the public domain. For that reason, I believe we need to stand behind him.
Yoko Ono
But think of the violence, it could happen to your kids.
Yoko Ono
It's a waste of time to think that if you colored a painting red what might have happened if you painted it black.
Yoko Ono
I don't particularly consider myself just an artist. I'm a woman - I'm a human being.
Yoko Ono
We are never alone. We are all aspects of one great being. No matter how far apart we are, the air links us.
Yoko Ono
There's nothing bad about feminism. We have to help each other, because there's a lot of women in the world who are suffering because the fact is we're not equal. It's as plain as that. It's still a men's world. I don't know. We'll go on with it.
Yoko Ono
The regret of my life is that I have not said 'I love you' often enough.
Yoko Ono
When I'm putting some communication out on Twitter or Facebook or Instagram, I think that it's helping me, my brain, you know, because it's always somehow stimulated by people who are sending things to me. And it works both ways. It's great. My brain is very happy about it.
Yoko Ono
When I speak out against the guns or against the big corporations, some of my friends say, 'Oh Yoko, be careful. These people have all the power.' But, you know, most people don't speak out because they are frightened.
