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.

More quotes by 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.

Success to me does not mean money.
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

My father, we bumped heads when I was younger, much younger... I had different ideas that I shared with him. He didn't like them as much. He gets upset or whatever. I guess I had a strong opinion from when I was a little boy.

Reggae music is simple music - but it's from the heart. Just as people need water to drink, people also need music. If it is true music, the people will be drawn to it.
Ziggy Marley
I don't fight creativity. I don't fight against not being creative. If I'm not being creative, I'm not forcing it.
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
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
I prefer the country life. I live in Kingston, but there is lots of trees.
Ziggy Marley
I used to have this little mouse. I buy birds from the pet store and I let them go.
Ziggy Marley
The solution for mankind is of a spiritual nature. It is not a political or religious solution. It's the ability to love each other. That's the only solution I see.
Ziggy Marley
I think my type of personality has all music inside of it, so I am full of music, without even knowing it, without even learning it, without even hearing it.
Ziggy Marley
Things like lack of leadership and a lack of the willingness to evolve, they’re so used to keeping people within the constraints of the idea that has been the same idea for a thousand years.
Ziggy Marley
I think it's wrong the way they criminalize herb. There are many more uses than just smoking. Beneficial to mankind.
