More quotes by John Denver
I believe that we are here for each other, not against each other. Everything comes from an understanding that you are a gift in my life - whoever you are, whatever our differences.
John Denver
Whatever meaning 'Annie's Song' had for me on a personal level, there was also a larger context. It could just as easily have been about love for a brother. Or a father. Or a friend. It could just as easily have been a prayer.
John Denver
Faith is a kind of knowing it is different from hope. My faith is that life is purposeful of that I'm sure. There is a God, there is intelligence, there is consciousness. And behind all of this, there is incredible compassion.
John Denver
I would so much like young people to have a sense of the gift that they are. Not many of them feel like that.
John Denver
Though the singer is silent…there is still the truth of the song.
John Denver
I would make my job a work of art. I would like whatever it is that I'm doing - everyone's experience of me, everyone's interaction with me, everyone's discussion, conversation, relationship with me - [to be] an event within which they get to see who they are. I would make of my life a work of art.
John Denver
On the road of experience, join in the living day if there's an answer, it's just that it is that way.
John Denver
No one person has to do it all but if each one of us follow our heart and our own inclinations we will find the small things that we can do to create a sustainable future and a healthy environment.
John Denver
Things go up and down. If you can survive the down, it will come back.
John Denver
Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong
John Denver
Aspen is the life to live, see how much there is to give. See how strongly you believe, see how much you may receive.
John Denver
Romance lasts forever, love don't fade away. They may take away our future, but they can't stop yesterday.
John Denver
To live on the land we must learn from the ocean, to be true as the tide and free as the wind swell.
John Denver
The best thing you have to offer the world is yourself. You don't have to copy anyone else. If you do, you're second best. To achieve success is to be first, and that's being yourself.
John Denver
The future of life on Earth depends on our ability to see the sacred where others see only the common
John Denver
If as an environmentalist we are against anything... it is against the arrogance of power and the most obcene ways it shows up, which is in greed.
John Denver
I am the hawk and there's blood in my feathers, but time is still turning they soon will be dry. And all those who see me and all who believe in me, share in the freedom I feel when I fly.
John Denver
I think more about the family now. That's an interesting progression for me.
John Denver
Divorce is just the most awful thing in the world.
John Denver
Love is a light that shines from heart to heart.
John Denver
