More quotes by John Denver
Relax, ease back in your seats and let the music take you wherever it does.
John Denver
Music does bring people together. It allows us to experience the same emotions. People everywhere are the same in heart and spirit. No matter what language we speak, what color we are, the form of our politics or the expression of our love and our faith, music proves: We are the same.
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
The future of life on Earth depends on our ability to see the sacred where others see only the common
John Denver
The Earth is our mother just turning around, with her trees in the forest and roots underground. Our father above us whose sigh is the wind, paint us a rainbow without any end.
John Denver

John Denver

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
Horses are creatures who worship the earth as they gallop on feet of ivory. Constrained by the wonder of dying and birth, the horses still run, they are free.
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
Things go up and down. If you can survive the down, it will come back.
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
Reach for the heavens, and hope for the future, and all that will be, not what we are.
John Denver
There's one piece of advice my dad gave me when he dropped me off at college. He said, You've got the talent. You can sing and play guitar. That doesn't make you any better than anyone else..
John Denver
I'm leaving on a jet plane Don't know when I'll be back again
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
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
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
Many things made me become a vegetarian, among them the higher food yield as a solution to world hunger.
John Denver
Celebrate Earth Day every day.
