More quotes by Yoko Ono
I'm just trying to do my best every day, hoping that I have done my best every day, and its very easy in a way, but also it's not that easy. Every day counts.
Yoko Ono
When Orientals are attacked, they don't hit back.
Yoko Ono
When you are totally depressed, you should try giggling. Just make yourself laugh. Force yourself to laugh.
Yoko Ono
We artists have the dignity to tell the truth to the people, unlike politicians.
Yoko Ono
I don't work for a long time on anything. I don't have too much time in life.
Yoko Ono

People accuse artists of being narcissists - of course we are! If we don't like ourselves, who's going to like us?
Yoko Ono
I started to notice that simpleness is divine. I think we all start trying to use very complex harmonies and rhythms and all that because of a certain kind of ambition. But I was always trying to create something simple.
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
People say that this new generation is so used to the Internet that their heads are already different. They can't read a book from beginning to end. That is not a tragedy. The book changes form.
Yoko Ono
If your life changes, we can change the world, too.
Yoko Ono
World peace is one project that we have to do together.
Yoko Ono
I never thought, I'm going to be an artist. When I actually began to become successful in the art world I made it a point to say, 'I am a dilettante, I am not a professional artist, which is true.
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
The sky is always there for me, while my life has been going through many, many changes. When I look up the sky, it gives me a nice feeling, like looking at an old friend.
Yoko Ono
It is sad that the air is the only thing we share. No matter how close we get to each other, there is always air between us.
Yoko Ono
The thing is, even after the revolution, if people don't have any trust in themselves, they'll get new problems.
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
Walking on thin ice, I'm paying the price. I'm throwing the dice in the air. Why must we learn it the hard way And play the game of life with your heart?
Yoko Ono
I'm free from holding personal anger because I can express what I want through my music.
Yoko Ono
