More quotes by Jack Johnson
If it seems like you are playing around and not practicing, that's when you know you really love it.
Jack Johnson
The words are all around but the words are only sounds and no one ever seems to listen.
Jack Johnson
I have dashed across continents and oceans as a fugitive and have matched my wits with the police and secret agents seeking to deprive me of one of the greatest blessings man can have-liberty.
Jack Johnson
An individual action, multiplied by millions, creates global change.
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
It seems to me that maybe pretty much always means no. So dont tell me, I might just let it go.
Jack Johnson
What about your mind, does it shine?
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
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
Sometimes I just start humming something, find a melody I like a lot, and if it sticks around for a couple days, a few words will lock themselves into place. I might just get the first line. Then words just keep falling into the syllables. The choruses kind of write themselves and verses I have to work at a little bit.
Jack Johnson
Dreams are like commercials, but her dreams are picture perfect.
Jack Johnson
I can go for a week without a guitar, but it's not even funny if I don't get to surf for a month.
Jack Johnson
It takes a long, hard effort and sustained determination to reduce crime. We will stay the course and we are confident that the numbers will continue to go down.
Jack Johnson
you don't always have to hold your head higher than your heart
Jack Johnson
It's as simple as something that nobody knows.
Jack Johnson
Sometimes, the simple messages are the best thing music can do, really. Sometimes, songs can stir people up, motivate them to make change.
Jack Johnson
I never took singing lessons. I guess, I feel comfortable with it, but I do not feel like a singer. I never want to sing without a guitar in my hand. I consider myself more of a songwriter, rather than a singer. I could never be in a wedding band and just sing Marvin Gaye songs.
Jack Johnson
He gets his courage from the can, it makes him feel like a man.
Jack Johnson
Plato's cave is full of freaks.
Jack Johnson
My friend told me later he got the chicken pox. I told him I caught politics and never got over it.
Jack Johnson
