whatever happens,
the sky is blue
Yoko Ono interviewed by Weekly Dig (December 2003): "A
tree can be cut down. But a seed is not so easy to destroy. A seed is small and
innocuous, and it's not making any statements yet. A tree is something that grew
out of it, and it';s standing, you know. And I really think that we should all
be small like the seeds. And know that we can grow."
