| "Facts an' facts, an' t'ings an' t'ings: dem's all a lot of fockin' bullshit. Here me! dere is no truth but de one truth, an' that is the truth of Jah Rastafari." "If you get down and you quarrel everyday, you're saying prayers to the Devil, I say." "Life and Jah are one in the same. Jah is the gift of existence. I am in some way eternal, I will never be duplicated. The singularity of every man and woman is Jah's gift. What we struggle to make of it is our sole gift to Jah. The process of what that struggle becomes, in time, the truth. "Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischeif and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake up and live!" "People want to listen to a message, word from Jah. This could be passed through me or anybody. I am not a leader. Messenger. The words of the songs, not the person, is what attracts people." "The first thing you must know about me is that I always stand for what I stand for. Good? The second thing you must know about yourself listening to me is that words are tricky. So when you know what me a stand for, when me explain a thing to you, you must never look 'pon it in a different way from what me a stand for." "Emancipate your self from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds." "I don't have to suffer to be aware of suffering. So is not anger [I have], but truth, and truth have to bust out of man like a river." "In the abundance of water, the fool is thirsty." "The harder the battle, the sweeter Jah victory." "Don't let them fool ya, or even try to school ya. We've got a mind of our own so go to hell if what'cha thinkin' makes me quiet." "Open you're eyes and look within, are you satisfied with the life you're livin'." "Don't gain the world and lose your soul, wisdom is better than silver or gold." |
