A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.

Yoko Ono

For decades, this was one of Yoko Ono’s favorite sayings. The adage appeared in her first book, 1964’s “Grapefruit: A Book of Instructions and Drawings by Yoko Ono,” and “New York Rock,” her 1994 off-Broadway musical loosely based on her marriage to John Lennon, as well as in various interviews and tweets. Ono was a young girl growing up in Japan when her country was targeted with bombs during World War II bombs. Here, the lifelong artist and peace advocate reiterates that no one can accomplish anything meaningful without the help and perspective of others. But with love and collaboration, a shared desire becomes a plan.
