More quotes by John Denver
For the children and the flowers are my sisters and my brothers, come and stand beside me, we can find a better way.
John Denver
I get an awful lot of fan mail, and I read all that I can.
John Denver
I don't want to just entertain people. I want to touch them.
John Denver
Divorce is just the most awful thing in the world.
John Denver
I'm leaving my sorrows and all my memories behind to see what I find, somewhere in the shade near the sound of a sweet singing river, somewhere in the sun where the mountains make love to the sky.
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
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
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 think more about the family now. That's an interesting progression for me.
John Denver
Imagine what it might do to the human spirit to know that we have conquered hunger as a world wide societal issue?
John Denver
Reach for the heavens, and hope for the future, and all that will be, not what we are.
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 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
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
There's an aspect of human nature in which we want to think we're better than somebody else. They're a different color. They speak a different language. They have a different name for the Creator. Whatever it is, that makes it okay for me to hate them, to try to get some of their land or some of their resources.
John Denver
I think the biggest problem in the world is that we have a generation of young people, and maybe two, who don't think it's going to get any better.
John Denver
Relax, ease back in your seats and let the music take you wherever it does.
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 nuclear arms race is like two people sitting in a pool of gasoline spending all their time making matches.
John Denver
Though the singer is silent…there is still the truth of the song.
John Denver
