More quotes by 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
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'm not an American, Do they count the votes in America? I haven't voted in Jamaica either.
Ziggy Marley
Nobody owns me or my music.
Ziggy Marley
If you keep hiding your true self, your life becomes like slow death. Once you become free from the lies and the hiding of yourself, then life becomes vibrant again.
Ziggy Marley
I think the people should have a right to boycott whoever they want to boycott without the government making them into criminals and try to protect corporations from people. They should protect people from corporations.
Ziggy Marley
I want the people who listen to my music to feel the feeling that I feel, to cry the cry that I cry - justice. I want them to feel in their hearts the need for justice.
Ziggy Marley
Everything that we put into our bodies should also be of nature, a part of that cycle of nature. Once you start messing with that - as I said, everything is connected. Once you start messing with psychological well-being, we get more and more messed up.

The last thing my father told me was: 'On your way up, take me up. On your way down, don't let me down.' A father telling his son that puts some responsibility on my shoulders. He told me that, and I take it very seriously.
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
Religion has become so many different things. Religion is an economic thing for some people. Religion is a gun.
Ziggy Marley
I go running. I go into nature. I really alleviate lot of emotional stress, any kind of stress I'm going through - exercise is my favorite medicine.
Ziggy Marley
My father's songs don't intimidate me my father's songs are my songs. My songs are his songs. There's no intimidation.
Ziggy Marley
I learned from my father that music is from God and the message is from God.
Ziggy Marley
As an artist, I feel that my father's biggest influence is me realizing that music has a purpose and it's not just for business and that music is spiritual. I get that from him that music is a spiritual thing.
Ziggy Marley
Hemp is a part of the cannabis plant and it is very useful.
Ziggy Marley
Yoga is a great thing and meditation is also great to get connected to yourself more.
Ziggy Marley
Using political tools to change social conditions won't work.
Ziggy Marley
People treat you according to your energy or what you put out there, so what I put out there is very open. I'm not paranoid or scared, I'm open. That's how I treat people, with respect and speak truthfully.
Ziggy Marley
People are loving me because they don't even know me. You're Bob's son. We love you. So I think that's a good thing for a father to leave so much that people are loving their children. I'm proud of that.
