Ben Harper
As long as someone else controls your history the truth shall remain just a mystery
Ben Harper

When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone - it's possible. But creatively, it's more like painting: you can't just use the same colours in every painting. It's just not an option. You can't take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
Ben Harper
There's no room in my life for religion. Religion is separation and segregation of God. How can you segregate the Almighty?
Ben Harper
Distance is temporary, but our love is permanent. This may be the last time I see you, but if you keep me in your heart, together we shall be eternal if you believe, we shall never part.
Ben Harper
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
If it comes out sounding like Dixieland jazz or classical or punk or rock or even slightly metal, that's because that's where I'm going to find inspiration.
Ben Harper
I knew a girl, her name was Truth. She was a terrible liar.
Ben Harper

Ben Harper
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.
Ben Harper
