Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash
I'm not bitter. Why should I be bitter? I'm thrilled to death with life.
Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash
I don't give up because I don't give up. I don't believe in it.
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
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
You know, the man's best friend is his dog... if he's got nothing else.
Johnny Cash
A person knows when it just seems to feel right to them. Listen to your heart.
Johnny Cash
God gives us life and takes us away as He sees fit.
Johnny Cash
Everything I have and everything I do is now given completely to Jesus Christ.
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.
Johnny Cash
You miss a lot of opportunities by making mistakes, but that's part of it: knowing that you're not shut out forever, and that there's a goal you still can reach.
Johnny Cash
We'll all be equal under the grass, and God's got a heaven for country trash.
Johnny Cash
