art moving rocks
If I hear dance music, my body starts to move. Whatever the dance music is, I can't help it. With all that, I still felt, well, rock is a little higher art, but it wasn't. Right now, because I have so much experience with dance charts, I started to realize that it's incredible art. This is going to be known one day as high art.
people cynical looks
When people get cynical about love, they should look at us [Yoko and John Lennon] and see it is possible
nice gay love-is
I should think that people would be more interested in politics and all that is happening, rather than two lovebirds who are looking to wed. I think it's very nice that in an age when love is so scarce that people are willing to gamble on getting married.
summer spring fall
Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence.
running half world
Society was built on male power, and women's power was... ignored is the best word to describe it I suppose, we have been running society on one power, half a power really. And that's so terrible. The world needs women's power too.
dance too-much ifs
You can't dance if you got too much muck in your head.
moving giving addresses
Give death announcements each time you move instead of giving announcements of the change of address. Send the same when you die.
art survival way
Art is a way of survival.
trying way done
I'm just trying to do my best every day, hoping that I have done my best every day, and its very easy in a way, but also it's not that easy. Every day counts.
odds miracle making-love
The odds of not meeting in this life are so great that every meeting is like a miracle. It's a wonder that we don't make love to every single person we meet.
love heart fighting
Remember love. Remember our hearts are one. Even when we are fighting with each other, our hearts are beating in unison. I love you.
home forget dies
Hide until everybody goes home. Hide until everybody forgets about you. Hide until everybody dies.
ocean thinking sky
Imagine a dolphin dancing in the sky. Let it dance with joy. Think of yourself at the bottom of the ocean watching.
art creating hey
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.
