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.

My father was interested in bringing reggae music to the entire world.
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 follow the universe I follow G-d. G-d made the sun, and the sun shines on everyone.
Ziggy Marley
I want to be fulfilled in myself, rather than try to follow exactly in my father's footsteps.
Ziggy Marley
It's natural that anyone is compared to their father.
Ziggy Marley
Music is one of the most essential things in life. It is what teaches us.
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
Alcohol, tobacco, and pharmaceutical drugs are legal, but they can hurt a lot of people.
Ziggy Marley
I try to make my music interesting to me first, then hopefully other people will find it interesting, too.
Ziggy Marley
Religion has become so many different things. Religion is an economic thing for some people. Religion is a gun.
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
The truth - you've got to deal with it or it will kill you bit by bit.
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
Fitness has always been one of the top priorities in my life because that's the way I grew up, with soccer being the sport of choice.
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
I don't condemn and I don't convert. I've been searching through books and bibles to find what this life is worth, and I've made up my mind: Love is my religion. You can take it or leave it, and you don't have to believe it. Love is my religion
Ziggy Marley
I've opened up more by traveling outside Jamaica. It helps me to grow as a person to be outside of my element to be on my own in a strange place meeting people.
Ziggy Marley
The more chemicals that are in our food, the more we are messing with things that we probably don't know the full effect of.
Ziggy Marley
Love is a positive effect. Love can never have a negative effect, only a positive effect.
Ziggy Marley
Each father wants their sons to be just like them, really.
