More quotes by Johnny Cash
When God forgave me, I figured I'd better do it too.
Johnny Cash
If I'm anything, I'm not a singer but I'm a song stylist.
Johnny Cash
I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way.
Johnny Cash
Rick Rubin said, well, I don't know that we will sell records. He said, I would like you to go with me and sit in my living room with a guitar and two microphones and just sing to your heart's content everything you ever wanted to record. I said, that sounds good to me. So I did that. And day after day, three weeks, I sang for him.
Johnny Cash
I don't give up because I don't give up. I don't believe in it.
Johnny Cash
I'm not bitter. Why should I be bitter? I'm thrilled to death with life.
Johnny Cash
I've never been accused of a felony. I never spent time behind bars except for a few overnight jail times back in the Sixties. [But] I think there's a little bit of a criminal in all of us. Everybody's done something they don't want anybody to know about.
Johnny Cash
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
Johnny Cash
Creative people have to be fed from the divine source. I have to get fed. I had to get filled up in order to pour out.
Johnny Cash
It was kind of a prodding myself to play I Walk The Line straight.
Johnny Cash
I'm not really concerned about boundaries. I just follow my conscience and my heart. Follow your heart. That's what I do. Compassion is something I have a lot of, because I've been through a lot of pain in my life. Anybody who has suffered a lot of pain has a lot of compassion.
Johnny Cash
You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.
Johnny Cash
Everybody was wearing rhinestones, all those sparkly clothes, and cowboy boots. I decided to wear a black shirt and pants and see if I could get by with it. I did and I've worn black clothes ever since.
Johnny Cash
I read novels but I also read the Bible. And study it, you know? And the more I learn, the more excited I get.
Johnny Cash
I'm thankful for the sea breeze that feels so good right now, and the scent of jasmine when the sun starts going down.
Johnny Cash
Life and love go on, let the music play.
Johnny Cash
Don't take voice lessons. Do it your way.
Johnny Cash
My father was a man of love. He always loved me to death. He worked hard in the fields, but my father never hit me. Never. I don't ever remember a really cross, unkind word from my father.
Johnny Cash
I used to sing Bill Monroe songs. And I'd sing Dennis Day songs like songs that he sang on the Jack Benny show.
Johnny Cash
The gospel of Christ must always be an open door with a welcome sign for all.
Johnny Cash
