More quotes by 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
If I was a Jewish girl in Hitler's day, I would become his girlfriend. After ten days in bed, he would come to my way of thinking.
Yoko Ono
Please know that being 80 is not a scary thing. When you're 80, your life is much freer.
Yoko Ono
I think energy is the most important thing that we can give to people as performers. Anything else is a little bit pretentious. But energy is not.
Yoko Ono
Perhaps one feels more pain when parents are there. It's like when you're hungry, you know, it's worse to get a symbol of a cheeseburger than no cheeseburger at all. It doesn't do you any good, you know.
Yoko Ono
Women are put in a position of feeling embarrassed about their bodies. It's so ridiculous, but also astounding - we have to always be apologetic about having created the human race.
Yoko Ono
Artists and musicians of the Sixties were definitely into clothes.
Yoko Ono
I have only one life, so I want to make sure it's a good one.
Yoko Ono
We're all water from different rivers, That's why it's so easy to meet, We're all water in this vast, vast ocean, Someday we'll evaporate together.
Yoko Ono
My father was a banker, but he was an independent spirit. He was a very good pianist and very much into music.
Yoko Ono
Someday I'll be remembered for The phone calls I never made Letters I never mailed And the stories I never finished telling anyone.
Yoko Ono
I am the type of person who would do something thoroughly if someone said, I don't think you can do it. I am extremely rebellious. I have this strong, defiant spirit.
Yoko Ono
We're growing up together, the human race. And we've discovered a lot of things that we didn't know. We're finding our way. Instead of thinking about doomsday all the time, think about how beautiful the world is. We're all together, and together we're getting wiser.
Yoko Ono
I never want projects to be finished I have always believed in unfinished work. I got that from Schubert, you know, the 'Unfinished Symphony.'
Yoko Ono
See what you can do. See what you want to do. See what you will do about it. Find your way out.
Yoko Ono
I admire all people who are trying to be a good power in this chaotic world.
Yoko Ono
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
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
The computer is my favourite invention. I feel lucky to be part of the global village. I don't mean to brag, but I'm so fast with technology. People think it all seems too much, but we'll get used to it. I'm sure it all seemed too much when we were learning to walk.
Yoko Ono
I think people place limitations on each other and on ourselves. There is a great fear of expressing ourselves, of making creativity happen.
