More quotes by Ziggy Marley
Music is a unifying force.
Ziggy Marley
Reggae has a philosophy, you know? It's not just entertainment. There's an idea behind it, a way of life behind the music, which is a positive way of life, which is a progressive way of life for better people.

I'm a big reader. My kids love reading, and I think it's important, not just for development but for bonding. You start reading to kids before they can even understand what you're saying to them, so I look at it as a fundamental tool for connection.

Success means different things to different people. To me, the greatest quality of successful human beings is the ability to love.

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
I'm my own psychologist.
Ziggy Marley
I wouldn't mind doing more in the kid's world because I think that might be just where I can be most useful to society, to the planet, if I can speak to children.
Ziggy Marley
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 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.
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
If there is no love in your heart - so sorry, Then there is no hope for you - true, true
Ziggy Marley
The idea of who my father is to me is very different than who he is to you, or to the rest of the world.
Ziggy Marley
My greatest accomplishment is the freedom for doing what I want to do with my music...I love my freedom so I'm happy I am a free artist.
Ziggy Marley
It's hard to say a favorite song of my father's. I listen to all his stuff a lot of the old stuff before the '70s.
