An individual action, multiplied by millions, creates global change.
Jack Johnson
But you're so busy changing the world Just one smile can change all of mine
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.

There were so many fewer questions when stars were still just the holes to heaven.
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
Plexi, plexi, bend don't shatter. Once you're broken, shape won't matter.
Jack Johnson
I think that if everybody changed and tried to make their music political, it'd be kind of a bummer.
Jack Johnson

Jack Johnson
We've got everything we need right here, and everything we need is enough.
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
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
It seems to me that maybe pretty much always means no. So dont tell me, I might just let it go.
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
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
you don't always have to hold your head higher than your heart
