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
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
San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell. May your walls fall and may I live to tell.
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
All your life, you will be faced with a choice. You can choose love or hate…I choose love.
Johnny Cash
