More quotes by Johnny Cash
Love is a burning thing and it makes a firey ring.
Johnny Cash
I wear black because I'm comfortable in it. But then in the summertime when it's hot I'm comfortable in light blue.
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
There's no way around grief and loss: you can dodge all you want, but sooner or later you just have to go into it, through it, and, hopefully, come out the other side. The world you find there will never be the same as the world you left.
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
There's a lot of things blamed on me that never happened. But then, there's a lot of things that I did that I never got caught at.
Johnny Cash
The first time I knew what I wanted to do with my life was when I was about four years old. I was listening to an old Victrola, playing a railroad song...I thought that was the most wonderful, amazing thing...That you could take this piece of wax and music would come out of that box. From that day on, I wanted to sing on the radio.
Johnny Cash
Get rhythm when you get the blues.
Johnny Cash
People call me wild. Not really though, I'm not.I guess I've never been normal, not what you call Establishment. I'm country.
Johnny Cash
You can ask the people around me. I don't give up. I don't give up. I don't give - and it's not out of frustration and desperation that I say I don't give up. I don't give up because I don't give up. I don't believe in it.
Johnny Cash
Inside the walls of a prison my body may be, but my Lord has set my soul free.
Johnny Cash
When I think about country music, I think about America.
Johnny Cash
Because you're mine, I walk the line.
Johnny Cash
[Sam Phillips] laughed at me. I just didn't like the way I Walk The Line sounded to me. I didn't know I sounded that way. And I didn't like it. I don't know. But he said let's give it a chance, and it was just a few days until - that's all it took to take off.
Johnny Cash
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide.
Johnny Cash
Understand your man, meditate on it.
Johnny Cash
I just hope and pray I can die with my boots on.
Johnny Cash
My mother always told me that any talent is a gift of God and I always believed it. If I quit, I would just live in front of the television and get fat and die pretty soon.
Johnny Cash
I Walk The Line was my third record.
Johnny Cash
That was American Recordings. I said, I like the name, maybe it'd be OK. So I said, I'd like to meet the guy [Rick Rubin ].I'd like for him to tell me what he can do with me that they're not doing now.
