Plexi, plexi, bend don't shatter. Once you're broken, shape won't matter.
Jack Johnson
I made a lot of mistakes out of the ring, but I never made any in it.
Jack Johnson
I finish a lot of lyrics while I'm in the water and it's always pretty constructive for me to get out in the water. I'm not actually writing the words down, but I have time to think about words, and doing a lot of surfing usually gives me a little space and peace of mind to finish things up.

Go to the east shore of any of the Hawaiian Islands, and that's a pretty big lesson on how much plastic is ending up in the ocean. Basically, the Hawaiian Islands act as a filter out in the middle of the Pacific.
Jack Johnson
Plato's cave is full of freaks.
Jack Johnson
If I had eyes in the back of my head, I would have told you you looked good as I walked away.
Jack Johnson
you don't always have to hold your head higher than your heart
Jack Johnson
You better hope you’re not alone.
Jack Johnson
There were so many fewer questions when stars were still just the holes to heaven.
Jack Johnson
It's as simple as something that nobody knows.
Jack Johnson
