More quotes by Ziggy Marley
The most important thing my father taught me is that every man has to stand up for his rights.
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
As an artist myself I don't like to be preached. I want to enjoy myself, so I kind of use that perspective to make music.
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.
Ziggy Marley
Yoga is a great thing and meditation is also great to get connected to yourself more.
Ziggy Marley
Social revolutions and group revolutions are good, and we need that, but we also need personal revolution - revolution within ourselves that change who we are as people.
Ziggy Marley
I am not trying to be better than my father. I am not trying to be like him. I am just trying to be myself and express myself how I feel.
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 political system is not for the people. The people are secondary to the economy. It's about what generates money, not about what benefits the people.
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
Food is an important part, not just in our physical well-being, but in our psychological well-being.
Ziggy Marley
I'm not so much into the beats. I'm more into the spiritual side of the music.
Ziggy Marley
There is a physical relationship with a woman that you don't have with anybody else, but that's not about love. Love is a spiritual thing.
Ziggy Marley
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.
Ziggy Marley
Nobody owns me or my music.
Ziggy Marley
I'm not a slave to the recording industry. I have the freedom to make an album that I want to make and do it the way I want.
Ziggy Marley
I grew up with coconuts as the main flavor in food in Jamaica. It's part of our culture.
Ziggy Marley
Love is my religion. Hey you can take it or leave it, and you don't have to believe it.
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
The long-term study of GMO foods is going on in real time and in real life. Not in a lab.
