I'm just being normal. A normal woman. Well, I don't know what a normal woman is, but I'm a woman and I'm Yoko and I've never changed that.
From Yoko Ono
Dancing is a very healthy thing to do for our body.
My heart is mysteriously alive in the world of sounds - a totally different dimension from the daily life.
Sound as medium has an incredible elasticity. So, of course, it is tempting for artists of other fields to try something with sounds. Why not? We are living in the age when there is no limit in gathering all forms of art and music to mix it together if you so desire.
The computer is my favourite invention. I feel lucky to be part of the global village. I don't mean to brag, but I'm so fast with technology. People think it all seems too much, but we'll get used to it. I'm sure it all seemed too much when we were learning to walk.
Women have become stronger, and there's a backlash. Men have become terribly possessive. I find it much easier to get on with women.
When I speak out against the guns or against the big corporations, some of my friends say, 'Oh Yoko, be careful. These people have all the power.' But, you know, most people don't speak out because they are frightened.
I saw that nothing was permanent. You don't want to possess anything that is dear to you because you might lose it.
I'm a very obsessive type. If I do get into it, I'll soon be there 12 hours a day. I just don't want to do that.
The cynicism that you have is not your real soul.
