  1. Bello!
    Con un bigliettino ad una sua mostra a Londra John s’innamorò di lei.

  2. “Breathe”.
    And then…the story of the imaginary five shillings…
    Another display was a white board with nails in it with a sign inviting visitors to hammer a nail into its surface. Since the show was not beginning until the following day, Ono refused to allow Lennon to hammer in a nail. The gallery owner whisked her away, saying, “Don’t you know who that is? He’s a millionaire!” (Ono later claimed not to know who John Lennon or The Beatles were, and there is no record proving otherwise.) Upon returning to John, she said he could hammer in a nail for five shillings. Lennon replied, “I’ll give you an imaginary five shillings if you let me hammer in an imaginary nail”.
