Bob Marley. He died on May 11, 1981. We round up a few of his quotes to mark the 30 years since his death: "Bob Marley isn't my name. I don't even know my name yet."
"Do you have a record contract? I have a recording agreement. What's the difference? One is an agreement and one is a contract! I am a man who deals by ear."
"I don't stand for the black man's side, I don' t stand for the white man's side. I stand for God's side."
"I love the development of our music, that's what I really dig about the whole thing. How we've tried to develop, y'know? It grows. That's why every day people come forward with new songs. Music goes on forever."
"I only have one thing I really like to see happen. I like to see mankind live together - black, white, Chinese, everyone - that's all."
"I like Wagner's music much better than anybody's. It's so loud that one can talk the whole time without people hearing you."
"I pledged to work for righteousness. God's given me inspiration. God's the boss, he tell me what to do."
"Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality . Wake Up and live!"
"I have a BMW. But only because BMW stands for Bob Marley and The Wailers, and not because I need an expensive car."
"I drive a jeep. An old jeep, so nobody will say I'm driving a BMW anymore. I couldn't stand that BMW. BMW make pure trouble!"
"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."
"Politics no interest me. Never play with peoples minds."
