Quotes:

Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die.
- Peter Tosh

I am not a politician....I only suffer the consequences
- Peter Tosh

Soon the earth will tilt on its axis and begin to dance to the reggae beat to the accompaniment of earthquake. And who can resist the dance of the earthquake, mon?
- Peter Tosh

I've got to pick myself up
Dust myself off
And start all over again.
- Peter Tosh

Are some flowers more beautiful than others? The garden is beautiful. Do I prefer brother over brother? Comparisons are part of this political world. Where there is one, there is no conflict. Where there is two or more, there is conflict. Two is the devil. Conflict begin with the devil. We count 0 to 1, then back to 0. It is a circle.
- Peter Tosh

And I ask why am I black, they say I was born in sin, and shamed inequity. One of the main songs we used to sing in church makes me sick, 'love wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.
- Peter Tosh

To have the truth in your possession you can be found guilty, sentenced to death.
- Peter Tosh

How old is the sun? Sun not temporary, not chronological. There is the terra-celestial and the celestial. I am celestial, mon. I am here, there and everywhere. I live among men so I must adjust myself. When I go to other planet, I must adjust myself there, too, mon.
- Peter Tosh

Because everyone who try a-go to church, and they were trying to teach but they weren't teaching, they was brainwashing. Since I would never call that teaching..
- Peter Tosh

I mean the flesh, never fade! The flesh never leave the creation, see, because with that divine spirit the flesh cannot fade. If the spirit is weak then the flesh fade, seen?
- Peter Tosh

General end up inna funeral, now dem want I fi come ah dem Yard!

Funniest Song Lyrics:

"African"

The Funny Lyrics:

And if you come from Tai-wan (you're an African)
Said if you come from Tai-two (you're an African).....
And if you come from I-Don't-Know-Where....

Why They're Funny:

Peter Tosh, most often, was dreadly serious, but he had a sense of humor, too. 'If you come from Tai-one, said if you come from Tai-two'?!? That always busts me up. And, then he drops this improvised line, 'if you come from I-Don't-Know-Where'?!? Knowing how Tosh was mostly a serious singer makes these lines all the more funny, as he delivers them in his usual mostly monotone baritone.(this live version is on the remastered cd version of 'Equal Rights')
