Quote

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.

The more red meat and blood we eat, the more bloodthirsty we get, the more violent we get. The more vegetarian food we eat, the more peace is taken into us.

I come to sing for the people, not for the government. God made the sunshine for everyone and made the moon for everyone. We have to follow his example so we have to play music for everyone too. We have a message, and in order for our message to reach the people, we have to play.

Today, music is great for entertainment, but it is lacking soul it's lacking substance, and it's difficult to find good stuff. There are too many corporate interests. It's not about the actual music because it's about the corporation, and music just becomes part of a package.

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
Image
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
Image
I am freely able to express myself honestly to the public without trying to polish it over, trying to hide something. I'm just trying to be free with my expression.

I used to have this little mouse. I buy birds from the pet store and I let them go.

I want people to get over the stigma about hemp. These seeds can't make you high, but they will make you feel good.
Ziggy Marley

I think my type of personality has all music inside of it, so I am full of music, without even knowing it, without even learning it, without even hearing it.

Love is more than one thing.

We still have to evolve, that's how we're created, we're created to evolve so you can believe in that the answer is in this book or in this one idea that the masses most believe in, each individual must evolve themselves, spiritually and consciously.
