More quotes by Ziggy Marley
Art is always good. It just depends if you like or not.
Ziggy Marley
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.
Ziggy Marley
It was my dad’s idea that music is supposed to be more than simply about entertainment and making a living, but about being of service as an integral part of the consciousness of the world. In honor of him and because it’s right, I use music in that light.
Ziggy Marley
Everything is connected. There is nothing that is not connected.
Ziggy Marley
My father speaks for himself, through his music.
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
In my songs, the sex is all subliminal. It's subliminal, spiritual.
Ziggy Marley
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.
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.
Ziggy Marley
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
Last time I was in Jamaica I financed a teacher to teach in an orphanage.
Ziggy Marley
The people who are teaching religion and not teaching love are missing the message.
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
I follow the universe I follow G-d. G-d made the sun, and the sun shines on everyone.
Ziggy Marley
Hemp is a part of the cannabis plant and it is very useful.
Ziggy Marley
I've been in Africa, America, moving around a lot. It's helped me to open up my mind. I was born in Jamaica I've lived all my life there and got all I could from Jamaica. But I needed to be somewhere else to grow.
Ziggy Marley
It's natural that anyone is compared to their father.
Ziggy Marley
Alcohol, tobacco, and pharmaceutical drugs are legal, but they can hurt a lot of people.
Ziggy Marley
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.
Ziggy Marley
Yoga is a great thing and meditation is also great to get connected to yourself more.
