There's no room in my life for religion. Religion is separation and segregation of God. How can you segregate the Almighty?
Ben Harper
Image
If you're gonna live, then live it up.
Ben Harper
Image
I want to try to be who I am today, not who I was yesterday.
Ben Harper

I'm a living sunset, lightning in my bones.

Image
You can't just say 'I love you,' you have to live 'I love you.'
Ben Harper

Every single time I step into the studio, I say, 'Can I still do this? Do I still have it? Have I ever had it?' I suppose there's a good amount of self-loathing that goes into any form of artisanship.

There's only one proper way a song should go, but you've got to be patient enough to let them come together time wise. Sometimes it's lightning in a bottle and you got the song. But oftentimes it shows up.

But I would never insult the people that love this music and I would never insult the blessing of music in my life and I would never insult myself by playing uninspired music.
Ben Harper
Image
If you're gonna live, then live it up. If you're gonna give, then give it up. If you're gonna walk the Earth, then walk it proud. If you're gonna say the word, you got to say it loud.
Ben Harper
Image
Life is short and if you're looking for extension, you had best do well. 'Cause there's good deeds and then there's good intentions. They are as far apart as Heaven and Hell.
Ben Harper
Image
It turns out that there is something more magnificent than nature. It's love.
Ben Harper
Image
Every time feels like my first time. And I just find that the process of it feeds into one's own self-obsession.
Ben Harper
Image
If interviews are just interviews or if music is just music, why are we even doing it? You only get so many hours in a lifetime, man.
Ben Harper
Image
I want to try to not be the child that had to go through too much too young. I want to be who I am now and not who I was then.
Ben Harper
Image
It will make a weak man mighty. it will make a mighty man fall. It will fill your heart and hands or leave you with nothing at all. It's the eyes for the blind and legs for the lame. It is the love for hate and pride for shame. That's the power of the gospel.

I can't not put myself in the shoes of every person I pass.

Let us burn one from end to end, and pass it over to me my friend.
