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.

More quotes by Jack Johnson
Guys who do a lot of running and jumping around cannot get themselves set to throw a hard punch.
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
When I do these interviews, I get really nervous. And when I get nervous, it comes off as mellow for some reason.
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
His dreams are like commercials.
Jack Johnson
Sure, the killer was my son, but I didn't teach him to pull the trigger of the gun. It's the killer on this TV screen, you can't blame me, it's the images he sees.
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
My friend told me later he got the chicken pox. I told him I caught politics and never got over it.
Jack Johnson
He gets his courage from the can, it makes him feel like a man.
Jack Johnson
you don't always have to hold your head higher than your heart
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
Getting lost is not a waste of time.
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
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
If it seems like you are playing around and not practicing, that's when you know you really love it.
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.
Jack Johnson
I made a lot of mistakes out of the ring, but I never made any in it.
Jack Johnson
I can change the world with my own two hands
Jack Johnson
It's as simple as something that nobody knows.
Jack Johnson
We could park the van and walk to town, find cheapest bottle of wine that we could find. And talk about the road behind, how getting lost is not a waste of time.
Jack Johnson
