More quotes by Yoko Ono
Artists are magicians and I definitely think John Lennon was a Wizard.
Yoko Ono
But only art and music have the power to bring peace.
Yoko Ono
IMAGINE PEACE: Think PEACE, Act PEACE, Spread # PEACE .
Yoko Ono
I have to be pretty inclusive. I have to be pretty much inside of me rather than going out and finding out what people are doing. I don't have the time to. I just listen to my mind, in a way.
Yoko Ono
I did not break up the Beatles. You can't have it both ways. If you're going to blame me for breaking the Beatles up, you should be thankful that I made them into myth rather than a crumbling group.
Yoko Ono
Not being appreciated for 40 years or something ... It feels like I was accused of something that I didn't do, which was breaking up the Beatles. That was like being somebody who is in prison without having done anything wrong.
Yoko Ono
I don't really believe in going with somebody to have tea and chat. I don't do that. It's just a waste of time.
Yoko Ono
I have a woman inside my soul.
Yoko Ono
We don't live by just sleeping and eating. We need pride and dignity in our lives. Work gives you that.
Yoko Ono
There are things you can never take, no matter how strong you are.
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
The 1960s were about releasing ourselves from conventional society and freeing ourselves.
Yoko Ono
I'm not going to doubt my life.
Yoko Ono
Imagine the clouds dripping Dig a hole in your garden to put them in
Yoko Ono
Women artists are still treated differently from men.
Yoko Ono
I just go with the flow, so any style can be in my music - that makes it exciting.
Yoko Ono
Music is like my security blanket. The first medium that I learned was music.
Yoko Ono
Bless you for your jealousy it is a sign of empathy.
Yoko Ono
Over 1,057,000 people have been killed by guns in the USA since John Lennon was shot and killed on 8 Dec 1980.
Yoko Ono
In the '60s, people were still very protective of each field that they belonged to. Avant-garde artists didn't know about rock or pop or jazz. And the jazz people of course didn't want to know about any other music. They were all just kind of protecting their territory.
