I left Jamaica for a while, because as an artist I need to experience different things, see the world, have different energies. Living in one place is not good for me.
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.

I never did feel any pressure in Jamaica. You just someone, not nobody big.
Ziggy Marley -
Hopefully people hear that a part of what hurts society has a lot to do with the diet, the food that you're eating. So let's be careful.
Ziggy Marley -
I am a leader. Leaders always get heat. They're always going against the grain. Jimi Hendrix got heat; Bob Marley got heat; Miles Davis got heat. Every great artist got heat. Heat means you're doing something right.
Ziggy Marley -
I was born by myself but carry the spirit and blood of my father, mother and my ancestors. So I am really never alone. My identity is through that line.
Ziggy Marley -
Jamaica has problems; America has problems; everywhere has problems.
Ziggy Marley -
My father was interested in bringing reggae music to the entire world.

Once you start messing with psychological well-being, we get more and more messed up.
Ziggy Marley -
My father loved all different types of music. He wasn't a snob. He wasn't a purist.
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.
Ziggy Marley -
Reggae music is not an easy music to like when it comes to the power in society. 'Cause it talks about changing society. You won't find it readily accepted.
Ziggy Marley -
No matter the bad things that happened in past time, let's try to live the best we can now.
Ziggy Marley -
I don't care what you play, where you're from, who you produce. It depends on what you're doing when you're with me. That's what counts. I don't pre-judge anything or anybody.

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 -
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 -
If food is labeled, some people might choose to eat stuff that's genetically modified. They might decide they love it. But give us a choice.
Ziggy Marley -
The sun is always shining. We have oxygen, trees, birds. There's so much good things on Earth, still. We haven't destroyed everything.
Ziggy Marley -
I am freely able to express myself honestly to the public without trying to polish it over, trying to hide something. I'm just trying to be free with my expression.
Ziggy Marley -
The African-American community still needs to come together as one and stand up for rights of the people and of what's happening in their culture, their community.
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'm a big reader. My kids love reading, and I think it's important, not just for development but for bonding. You start reading to kids before they can even understand what you're saying to them, so I look at it as a fundamental tool for connection.
Ziggy Marley -
I am expressing myself truthfully. That is an important thing.
Ziggy Marley -
Children are the world's future, and we need to take care of them like we would any precious resource.
