More quotes by Jack Johnson
His dreams are like commercials.
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.
Jack Johnson
The bitter attacks I faced were far worse than any fighter I ever faced in the ring. The caustic remarks, the threats to injure me, the shots at my character-fighting those were my toughest battle.
Jack Johnson
I can never tell what's going to end up being on an album until it's all finished. I'm reading the news everyday, and sometimes I just have to be away from it. And that ends up writing the songs for me a little bit.
Jack Johnson
You better hope you’re not alone.

We get to go out into the schools and work with the kids on connecting them to their food at a young age, to actually see where their food is coming from, to see that their food is coming from the earth and not just from a supermarket. Once they make that connection, they can start to build upon that.
Jack Johnson
I never doubted the issue from the beginning. I knew I was too good for Burns. I have forgotten more about fighting than Burns ever knew.
Jack Johnson
Who’s to say what’s impossible? Well they forgot this world keeps spinning. And with each new day, I can feel a change in everything.
Jack Johnson
You and your heart shouldn't feel so far apart
Jack Johnson
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
I made a lot of mistakes out of the ring, but I never made any in it.
Jack Johnson
He gets his courage from the can, it makes him feel like a man.
Jack Johnson
She barely understands her dreams of belly button rings and other kind of things. Symbolic of change, but the thing that is strange, it that the changes occur, and now she's just a part of the herd.
Jack Johnson
What about your mind, does it shine?
Jack Johnson
When I do these interviews, I get really nervous. And when I get nervous, it comes off as mellow for some reason.
Jack Johnson
The words are all around but the words are only sounds and no one ever seems to listen.
Jack Johnson
An individual action, multiplied by millions, creates global change.
Jack Johnson
Guys who do a lot of running and jumping around cannot get themselves set to throw a hard punch.
Jack Johnson
Schedules are impossible to me. I am excited to be on tour, but there are instances when I wish that I wasn't managed. The shows are fun, but six hour drives burn me out.
Jack Johnson
We've got everything we need right here, and everything we need is enough.
Jack Johnson
