More quotes by Ziggy Marley
The more I grow as an artist, the more I think I become like my father as an artist. The more I diversify, the more I become like my father, which is true to who he was.
Ziggy Marley
I think if I'm serious about affecting people with music, I have to affect people on a human to human level, not on a grand social idea or political idea, it has to be a human being idea so it has to be what's inside a human being.
Ziggy Marley
In my songs, the sex is all subliminal. It's subliminal, spiritual.
Ziggy Marley
I don't chase what I hear on the radio. I try not to compete with anybody.
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
Love is my religion. Hey you can take it or leave it, and you don't have to believe it.
Ziggy Marley
I don't like to do things for any other reason than it happens spontaneously or there's something that makes it happen naturally. I don't like putting down too many plans and trying to do a strategy to get a certain response or a certain effect.
Ziggy Marley
How come fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?
Ziggy Marley
Love is a positive effect. Love can never have a negative effect, only a positive effect. That would be the revelation of love. If you have a question of whether this is love, think about the effect.
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
I never did feel any pressure in Jamaica. You just someone, not nobody big.
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've tried body surfing. It's nice.
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
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
Old music used to mean something. There is none of that today.
Ziggy Marley
The music I do is food... that will be your dinner.
Ziggy Marley
There's more to life than physical and material.
Ziggy Marley
I have found that children are the most open-minded of all my audiences. They are not set in their ways. They are open to ideas.
Ziggy Marley
I follow the universe I follow G-d. G-d made the sun, and the sun shines on everyone.
