Imagine painting all the statues in the world in the color of the sky

You're filled with so much life. Is there any reason why all of us are not full of life?
Yoko Ono

I love to work. Doing things we love is how we relax, I think.
Yoko Ono
Image
I think if you give in and accept society's stereotypes, then you start thinking, 'I cannot dance till late at night because I'm 70.'
Yoko Ono
Image
We don't read people's wishes. The wishes are suppose to be direct communication to the Universe. Your interception will weaken the power of the wish.

Artists and musicians of the Sixties were definitely into clothes.

Unclog your mind. Unclog your room. Arrange your room in a way you wish your mind would be.

When I turned 60, it didn't bother me at all.
