More quotes by Jason Mraz
So often the woman forgets her own greatness and she goes a little bat sh-- crazy sometimes. So its up to the other half to love that person back into the person we know them to be.
Jason Mraz
Quite simply I've distilled my mission down to the essence. The only thing I'm really here to do is shine light on people's lives through music, through laughter and to simply enjoy being with people.
Jason Mraz
Music is a weapon in the war against unhappiness.

Because I trust in the ever-changing climate of the heart. (At least, today I feel that way.) I think it is necessary to have many experiences for the sake of feeling something for the sake of being challenged, and for the sake of being expressive, to offer something to someone else, to learn what we are capable of.
Jason Mraz
As things grew for me I felt like I was losing myself and wanted to stay true to myself as well. I didn't want to lose any connection I had with the audience. I felt small on a big stage and I felt like I was peaking generically to an audience.

Music is my way to shine back and express positive vibrations for a common healing. It's similar to farming, or surfing, or yoga. Before world peace, we have to have inner peace and music helps us get there.

I think there’s no greater joy than completing a song out of thin air. It’s like inventing something, but it’s invisible, you know? It’s weird. It amazes me. You can send it out in the world, and that’s the joy. It’s like giving birth to all these songs and letting them go like they’re your kids.
Jason Mraz
When I have a breakthrough in music and I hear the melody in my hands: that's when I get compelled - something in my gut just has to rise up and sing and put something to that.
Jason Mraz
When you're writing a song and there are five people invested in it, it's easy for one person to say, 'Oh, this song is about this and that', and everyone has to hear the idea and see if they can do better.

My touring isn't about collecting souvenirs and always being on the go. My souvenirs are writing in my journal and creating new music, because that fits easily into my backpack when I'm travelling around the world. It's something that I can share later with fans or with future family members.
Jason Mraz
Open up your heart and the sky is yours.
Jason Mraz
Just take it easy and celebrate the malleable reality. You see, nothing is ever at is seems, yeah this life is but a dream.
Jason Mraz
For every action there’s a reaction. And also, for every action there’s an equal and opposite criticism.
Jason Mraz
Here’s to freedom, cheers to art. Here’s to having an excellent adventure and may the stopping never start.

If I'm in a relationship, that girl gets showered with letters from the road. I pour my heart into it.

The soil is actually the greatest technology we have for adapting to climate change. And I feel it's our generation's duty to build it back up.

And when you're needing your space to do some navigating...I' ll be here patiently waiting to see what you find

Love is the only thing that makes the world spin around, I think. It's weird. We have to call it love, because we have to call it something, but it's not a word. It's an energy. It's an act. It's an action. It's a natural thing.
Jason Mraz
But you are beautiful And you better go show it So go look again You gotta be true to your own If you really wanna go to the top Do you really wanna win Don’t believe in leaving normal Just to satisfy demand ((Beauty in Ugly))

If you are what you eat, in my case, I'd be sweet so come and get some.
