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.

More quotes by Ziggy Marley
Politics, nature, and what is happening all over the world is important to who we are and where we live.
Ziggy Marley
If religion had a good purpose, then man would have created something great. But we're man: we mess up everything. We mess up nature. We mess up God. We take what is given to us and make it into what we think it should be.
Ziggy Marley
Kids out there now have learning issues. Having mental issues. And everybody is looking towards what drug to give them, but is anyone looking at the food that the children are eating? What you're eating has a big impact.
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
This dragonfly came up to me. He was hovering right in front of my face, and I was really examining him, thinking, How does he see me? I became enlightened.
Ziggy Marley
I have a satellite radio show called 'The Legends of Reggae.' It's a cool way to branch out and do other things. I'm paying respect to the legends of reggae.
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
Growing up, music was an important part of my childhood. I see it being just as important in my children and all children's growth and development, and in a parent's connection with their children.
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
Reggae has a philosophy, you know? It's not just entertainment. There's an idea behind it, a way of life behind the music, which is a positive way of life, which is a progressive way of life for better people.
Ziggy Marley
I don't believe in other people's ideas. I have my own ideas.
Ziggy Marley
People love me everywhere I go.
Ziggy Marley
We still have to evolve, that's how we're created, we're created to evolve so you can believe in that the answer is in this book or in this one idea that the masses most believe in, each individual must evolve themselves, spiritually and consciously.
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
I'm inspired to do music. I really can't stop unless I stop being inspired.
Ziggy Marley
I try to make my music interesting to me first, then hopefully other people will find it interesting, too.
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
I don't chase what I hear on the radio. I try not to compete with anybody.
Ziggy Marley
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
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.
Ziggy Marley
