More quotes by Yoko Ono
When you are suffering, you become more understanding about yourself, but also about other people's sufferings too. That's the first step to understand somebody is to understand their sufferings. So then love follows.
Yoko Ono
Nobody's life is a bed of roses. We all have crosses to bear, and we all just do our best. I would never claim to have the worst situation. There are many widows, and many people dying of AIDS, many people killed in Lebanon, people starving all over the planet. So we have to count our lucky stars.
Yoko Ono
I trust in my inspiration, really, and that's difficult because sometimes you would rather be technical. And once you empty your mind, empty your brain, it's really incredible. I'm very caring about things that dash into my brain, and I make sure I don't just clog it.
Yoko Ono
I get very nervous before I get on the stage, but once I'm on the stage, I'm just, you know, me. Nothing hurts me.
Yoko Ono
Luckily we never injected because both of us were totally scared about needles. So that probably saved us. And the other thing that saved us was our connection was not very good.
Yoko Ono
In the Second World War, I was a little girl. I was evacuated in my country.
Yoko Ono
Look at yourself in the mirror and don't be afraid to notice how beautiful you are.
Yoko Ono
Love is an incredibly strong thing, it goes everywhere, it's like water, you can't stop it. Love, once you have it, once you create a kind of pathway for it to come out, it just keeps on coming out.
Yoko Ono
All I’m saying is that perhaps we can make a revolution without violence.
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.
Yoko Ono
Everything has complexity. Everything has simplicity. You just grab it.
Yoko Ono
Sometimes I have compared myself with a scientist or something: when you discover something and you don't expect the whole world to understand it. I always thought I was doing that kind of activity, in art and in music too.
Yoko Ono
When you're imagining peace, you can't kill anyone. That's good isn't it?
Yoko Ono
Power is power. It's energy. And if you get big, big energy, you can use that in a good way.
Yoko Ono
Be kind to yourself this evening. Buy something for yourself. Treat yourself to a meal. Look in the mirror and give yourself a smile
Yoko Ono
It's a waste of time to think that if you colored a painting red what might have happened if you painted it black.
Yoko Ono
I thank Pussy Riot for standing firmly in their belief for Freedom of Expression, and making all women of the world proud to be women.
Yoko Ono
Is truth always positive? Of course. Once the truth comes out, you know, it's all right. We're scared that if the truth comes out that it's not all right. It's the other way around.
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
Art is my life and my life is art.
Yoko Ono
