More quotes by Ziggy Marley
Last time I was in Jamaica I financed a teacher to teach in an orphanage.
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
Proud about my father? What am I most proud of? I think I'm proud of the legacy he left I think is what it is. He has left us so much.
Ziggy Marley

Ziggy Marley
I was 12 when my father passed, so I didn't have a father during my teenage years.
Ziggy Marley
As an artist, I feel that my father's biggest influence is me realizing that music has a purpose and it's not just for business and that music is spiritual. I get that from him that music is a spiritual thing.
Ziggy Marley
Doing something that is productive is a great way to alleviate emotional stress. Get your mind doing something that is productive.
Ziggy Marley
People have to know there is more to living than physical things.
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
It's natural that anyone is compared to their father.
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 am not reggae, I am me. I am bigger than the limits that are put on me. It all has to do with the individual journey.
