Jack Johnson
Looking at himself, but wishing he was someone else. Because the posters on the wall, they don't look like him at all.
Jack Johnson

Love is the answer, at least for most of the questions in my heart.
Jack Johnson
Love is when you find that thing, when you want to give more than you want to take. When you find the things that you love the most and you want to give those away, that's love. It's when you want somebody to be happier than yourself, but then once you make them happy, it makes you happier.
Jack Johnson
I made a lot of mistakes out of the ring, but I never made any in it.
Jack Johnson
