I was in my yard and thought that the tree was a living being. We take trees for granted. We don't believe they are as much alive as we are.

More quotes by 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
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
I run four times a week. And I don't count miles - I don't do that. I don't care about that. I care about how I feel, and I run according to how I feel.
Ziggy Marley
I make music that I know that people will enjoy, and balance the ideas and philosophy that we put in music with music that when we play it live, people can move to it and groove to it.
Ziggy Marley
I don't chase what I hear on the radio. I try not to compete with anybody.
Ziggy Marley
I'm a spiritual musician, I think there has been enough political musicians and I think everything that can be said has been said about political, social things, you know, and there's still some more to be said but not much.
Ziggy Marley
Reggae music is simple music - but it's from the heart. Just as people need water to drink, people also need music. If it is true music, the people will be drawn to it.
Ziggy Marley
I left Jamaica for a while, because as an artist I need to experience different things, see the world, have different energies. Living in one place is not good for me.
Ziggy Marley
To me, everything is connected. We're a part of nature. We are organic beings. None of us were - all of us come out of a woman. That's the way we're growing.
Ziggy Marley
My father, my Rastafari culture, has a tight link to the Jewish culture. We have a strong connection from when I was a young boy and read the Bible, the Old Testament.
Ziggy Marley
My father, his spirit is with me constantly, and I'm a believer in that world and the world of dreams and that stuff.
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
I never did feel any pressure in Jamaica. You just someone, not nobody big.
Ziggy Marley
Reggae music is not an easy music to like when it comes to the power in society. 'Cause it talks about changing society. You won't find it readily accepted.
Ziggy Marley
It was my dad’s idea that music is supposed to be more than simply about entertainment and making a living, but about being of service as an integral part of the consciousness of the world. In honor of him and because it’s right, I use music in that light.
Ziggy Marley
Record stores keep the human social contact alive it brings people together. Without the independent record stores the community breaks down with everyone sitting in front of their computers
Ziggy Marley
My life is a life of accepting what the universe has offered me... I don't fight the universe.
Ziggy Marley
I've spent a lot of time in America since Sept. 11, 2001. Being here, I was noticing that the people, who in the '60s used to voice their opinions about their rights, are much different today. People are afraid to voice opposition to the government in a mass way.
Ziggy Marley
The truth - you've got to deal with it or it will kill you bit by bit.
Ziggy Marley
I'm not so much into the beats. I'm more into the spiritual side of the music.
Ziggy Marley
