“I want to thank Madeline for what she’s done. Yoko is one of the most amazing humans who ever lived.
Madeline not only understands Yoko, but she’s gotten deep into her soul , which is very, very important.
Yoko really wants the world to be a better place. She wants people to be OK and to love each other. Madeline has really helped to communicate that, and I’m very grateful.”
– Dan Richter, assistant to John & Yoko / Talk More Talk podcast / March 6, 2025
