More quotes by Johnny Cash
I've been flushed from the bathroom of your heart.
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
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
I love the young people.

Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash
San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell. May your walls fall and may I live to tell.
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
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
It takes a real man to live for God-a lot more man than to live for the devil, you know? If you really want to live right these days, you gotta be tough.
Johnny Cash
I wear black for those who never read or listen to the words that Jesus said, about the road to happiness, through love and charity.
Johnny Cash
