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
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
Love is a light that shines from heart to heart.
John Denver
I don't want to just entertain people. I want to touch them.
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
Reach for the heavens, and hope for the future, and all that will be, not what we are.
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
