Bob Marley was one of the most inspirational musicians of the 20th century. He was truly a voice of many people, which is one reason he is loved all over the world. He born in a small village in Jamaica and only lived 36 years, but in his short life he made himself an ambassador of love, unity, and positive thinking. We were in Jamaica a couple weeks ago, and he’s more than a national hero there, he’s simply called the King, and people worship him throughout his country. We were able to visit his house in Kingston, and I was personally struck by the huge load of positive energy and love that surrounds his legacy. Here we’re sharing some of the photos we took at Bob Marley’s house.

We’ve selected 7 of the most uplifting and life-changing Bob Marley quotes for you:
“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.”
~Bob Marley
Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet.~Bob Marley
“If she’s amazing she won’t be easy. If she’s easy, she won’t be amazing. If she’s worth it, you won’t give up. If you give up, you’re not worthy..Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.”~Bob Marley
Who are you to judge the life I live?
I know I’m not perfect -and I don’t live to be-
but before you start pointing fingers…make sure your hands are clean!
― Bob Marley
“Don’t Gain The World & Lose Your Soul, Wisdom Is Better Than Silver Or Gold.”
“The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.”
“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!!”
“The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively”
