More quotes by Ziggy Marley
If African countries can unite and pull resources together, then that will be the best thing we could ever do for the problems in Africa including AIDS.
Ziggy Marley
Working on my own gave me a chance to take my time and experiment a lot.
Ziggy Marley
Everything, I just wanted to be like my father. And, as I grew within the music, I kind of became myself which was even more like my father, only without me trying though.
Ziggy Marley
Hopefully people hear that a part of what hurts society has a lot to do with the diet, the food that you're eating. So let's be careful.
Ziggy Marley
If religion had a good purpose, then man would have created something great. But we're man: we mess up everything. We mess up nature. We mess up God. We take what is given to us and make it into what we think it should be.
Ziggy Marley
I am not reggae, I am me. I am bigger than the limits that are put on me. It all has to do with the individual journey.
Ziggy Marley
Everything I've taken away from my father has been significant. So, I can't say that any one lesson is the most significant. By being around him, I learned that there is a purpose in life, and that if we are inspired to help people, we should do it.
Ziggy Marley
My father was like the Old Testament. I am the New Testament. I am part of a new generation. In time, people will realize this.
Ziggy Marley
It's that kind of in-born music thing - I could pick up the guitar and play something. It's not something I consciously do.
Ziggy Marley
People believe that there's no room for change, there's no room to grow and if we're talking about this idea of God which is the infinite then there's no way that there's no room to grow because infinity is endless. So there must be more room to understand more and to evolve the way we think about this idea.
Ziggy Marley
I am a leader. Leaders always get heat. They're always going against the grain. Jimi Hendrix got heat Bob Marley got heat Miles Davis got heat. Every great artist got heat. Heat means you're doing something right.
Ziggy Marley
Love is a positive effect. Love can never have a negative effect, only a positive effect.
Ziggy Marley
I rented a house, recorded the stuff in a house. Just took my time 'cuz sometimes it's just rush, rush, rush. I just wanna live and play music.
Ziggy Marley
I learned from my father that music is from God and the message is from God.
Ziggy Marley
How come fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?
Ziggy Marley
The roots of my music start from the ghetto.
Ziggy Marley
God is like the sun. When the sun shines, it shines for everyone. God is for everyone.
Ziggy Marley
I would look at a dog and when our eyes met, I realized that the dog and all creatures are my family. They're like you and me.
Ziggy Marley
I don't fight creativity. I don't fight against not being creative. If I'm not being creative, I'm not forcing it.
Ziggy Marley
Love is cheering and sharing and compassion, and giving and receiving. Love is an action thing more than a word thing, that brings comfort or joy, or relief to anyone or anything.
Ziggy Marley
