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.

More quotes by 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
To me, everything is connected. We're a part of nature. We are organic beings. None of us were - all of us come out of a woman. That's the way we're growing.
Ziggy Marley
I'm not an American, Do they count the votes in America? I haven't voted in Jamaica either.
Ziggy Marley
I'm a spiritual musician, I think there has been enough political musicians and I think everything that can be said has been said about political, social things, you know, and there's still some more to be said but not much.
Ziggy Marley
My whole family is spiritual. My grandmother, grand aunt, cousins, they're all preachers and pastors. Spirituality is a part of my family, from generations ago.
Ziggy Marley
I’m not Catholic, I’m not Orthodox… and I wouldn’t even say Rastafarian, that still divides people, I don’t want to divide people so anything that I say is something that must be so big and great that it did encompass everyone and it’s love.

There's more to life than physical and material.
Ziggy Marley
My father, his spirit is with me constantly, and I'm a believer in that world and the world of dreams. So I've had dreams of my father over the years, and that's the way I really stay connected to him. He's still in my subconscious. He lives in there.
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
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
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
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 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
Art is always good. It just depends if you like or not.
Ziggy Marley
If there is no love in your heart - so sorry, Then there is no hope for you - true, true
Ziggy Marley
My best business decision was to be independent as a musician and artist. My worst was compromising on certain aspects of a deal for the sake of other members of my group when I shouldn't have, because I was right in the end.
Ziggy Marley
People love me everywhere I go.
Ziggy Marley
We believe in the almighty and we believe in God and that music is from God and we're inspired by God to give messages and ideas to people.
Ziggy Marley
I want to be fulfilled in myself, rather than try to follow exactly in my father's footsteps.
