I see so many activists... who are artists because they feel that they have the power of communication.
We know that our cells are speaking to each other.
I'm very thankful that I can make people happy just by signing my name.
The whole world is starting to realize that it was the most unwise thing for our society to have ignored women power, to run the society with male priorities.
When people ask me what the most important thing is in life, I answer: 'Just breathe.'
The only instrument I can play is piano. Whenever I make songs at home, I play the piano and make them on the piano.
After my husband John Lennon passed away, I tried to smile for my health.
I travel a lot, so when I arrive in a city, I like to go to good local bookshops and make a selection based on how I'm feeling and what I'm thinking. The book I pick usually seems to have a definite karmic connection!
I just like to explore all sorts of different forms - no, 'explore' is not even the word - enjoy. You don't want to limit yourself to a particular form.
Many people do remember their births, but they deny it.
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.
To have a relationship that is pure and passionate and beautiful - I think people are scared of having that now. Especially guys.
My first husband met me as a career woman, and the second did, too. I was lucky.
I am aware of the sufferings of women in India, which is also the suffering of women in many, many countries on our planet. My heart is filled with empathy and love for them.
Distance doesn't exist, in fact, and neither does time. Vibrations from love or music can be felt everywhere, at all times.
If everybody thinks of something, then it will happen. Your mind is part of the universe. It is connected, you can use its energy.
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.
Great Art is Great because it inspired you greatly. If it didn't, no matter what the critics, the museums and the galleries say, it's not great art for you.
My career? I never think of it as a 'career.' Art and music and all those things that I'm creating are just part of me.
I've always said that I use my voice as an instrument. It was something I created myself, and I said, 'Have voice, will travel.'
Fracking kills, and it doesn't just kill us. It kills the land, nature and, eventually, the whole world.
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.'
Countries have lost their culture because what they wanted was money. Money became the running theme in every country and culture was sacrificed.
I don't believe in a chronological way of doing things.
Fracking is an incredible risk to the human race, I don't know why they even thought of doing it.
Music is like my security blanket.
Many of my songs were dance orientated from way back. That's because I love dance! When I hear a dance number, just hearing the first eight bars, it immediately makes my bod start moving and dancing.
There is an incredible love in creating art unless somebody is saying, 'Hey, let's just make money,' because it doesn't work when you do it that way. If you are aiming for that, forget it.
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.
