Some people they simply just want to hear you. And others actually have things they want to share and talk with you about. So it's important for me to be as strong as I can when I leave home so I can hold space for all of it.

More quotes by Jason Mraz
What I'd love to do is work with kids in the U.S. to raise their awareness and encourage them to be global citizens. We're all connected these days we can listen to the same music as kids all around the world and share our ideas.

For the first thirty years of my life I exercised very little, and I smoked cigarettes for ten or twelve years, and I ate junk food. And I began to see some elders in my community's health decline, and I didn't want that to happen to me.
Jason Mraz
I would enjoy doing what cats do: singing, sleeping, and licking my nuts.
Jason Mraz
I'm totally into new age and self-help books. I used to work in a bookstore and that's the section they gave me, and I got way into it. I just loved the power of positive thinking, letting yourself go.

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.

I ride a bicycle everywhere I go, the physical strength is obvious, but my mental strength and my capacity to love myself and to love others has definitely expanded. And that's the one thing I need the most in taking on a life of touring and a life of basically being with hundreds of people every day and not exhaust one's energy.

Paul McCartney and John Lennon would often write a song a day, so I have the same workmanlike philosophy.
Jason Mraz
If it's a broken part, replace it. If it's a broken arm then brace it. If it's a broken heart, then face it.

When I was in high school, The Dave Matthews Band was a local band, and that was the first time I was starting to connect with a live band that was something that wasn't on the radio or TV.
Jason Mraz
I aim to write songs in a way that you don't have to have gone to Ghana to relate to it, you really just have to have a heart.

New York City has the most beautiful women.
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
I try not to write songs. I would rather emote them, and I found myself going back to my room every night while on my trip, just pouring out new songs and new stories about what I was seeing, what I was feeling.
Jason Mraz
I don't follow any of what the pop world is doing. Sometimes I feel like that's a weakness, actually, that I'm too in my own bubble. But I'm really just interested in the inner journey. And pop is all about the exterior world, the material.

To create an album of 12 songs, I've got to write about 80 songs. Half of those are totally weird and rubbish.

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
One thing I'm most passionate about is that I'm geared up and ready for another cycle of touring, to go out in the world and be whoever I need to be for someone.
Jason Mraz
It's our God forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved.
Jason Mraz
We have the ability to manifest our thoughts: to actually say something and express what our feelings are. That, then, transforms the world and puts something into action.
