More quotes by Yoko Ono
you don't need talent to be an artist. 'Artist' is just a frame of mind. Anybody can be an artist, anybody can communicate if they are desperate enough.
Yoko Ono
I always thought that I was an important musician. If you don't have that confidence, why would you go on and do it?
Yoko Ono
I love to work. Doing things we love is how we relax, I think.
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
I thought art was a verb, rather than a noun.
Yoko Ono
I often wish my mother had died so that at least I could get some people's sympathy. But there she was, a perfectly beautiful mother.
Yoko Ono
I think something that's very important for us to communicate is usually very simple. Like breathing: Breathing is very simple. You don't do a dissonant 9th harmony or something in breathing. You just breathe, you know. I think that's how it is with very important messages.
Yoko Ono
Art is my life and my life is art.
Yoko Ono
Don't ever give up on life. Life can be so beautiful, especially after you've spent a lot of time with it.
Yoko Ono
I never thought I would go into the dance charts.
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
Everybody's an artist. Everybody's God. It's just that they're inhibited. I believe in people so much that if the whole of civilization is burned so we don't have any memory of it, even then people will start to build their own art. It is a necessity -- a function. We don't need history.
Yoko Ono
I never went to art school and I never thought of going to an art school. It was just a way of manifesting these ideas I had. Ideas came to me that I needed to express.
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
Art is an effort to make you walk a half an inch above ground.
Yoko Ono
The nice thing about the gallery shows is that without having to pay any money you can just go and see it.
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
What a beautiful future it will be! Don't worry about life being boring. It will never be.
Yoko Ono
You may think I’m small, but I have a universe inside my mind.
Yoko Ono
Each time we don't say what we wanna say, we're dying.
Yoko Ono
