Home is wherever we are if there's love here too
Jack Johnson
I made a lot of mistakes out of the ring, but I never made any in it.
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
Plexi, plexi, bend don't shatter. Once you're broken, shape won't matter.
Jack Johnson
The fight between life and death is to the finish, and death ultimately is the victor . . . I do not deplore the passing of these crude old days.
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

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
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.

When I'm playing music I'm usually not thinking of surfing, just because I'm usually thinking about the chords and the lyrics, and sometimes that messes me up 'cause you'll start thinking, Wait, how am I doing this? But when I'm surfing, I'm usually thinking about music - whether it's an idea for a new song, or just singing a song in my head.
Jack Johnson
Plato's cave is full of freaks.
Jack Johnson
You need aspiration if you want to really achieve greatness in this world.
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
We've all got the blood on our hands, we only receive what we demand.
Jack Johnson
It's as simple as something that nobody knows.
Jack Johnson
All caught up in the trends, well the truth began to bend.
Jack Johnson
But you're so busy changing the world Just one smile can change all of mine
Jack Johnson
Guys who do a lot of running and jumping around cannot get themselves set to throw a hard punch.
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
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.
