More quotes by Johnny Cash
Why me, Lord? What have I ever done to deserve even one of the blessings I've known? Why me, Lord? What did I ever do that was worth love from you and the kindness you've shown? Lord, help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so. Help me, Jesus. I know what I am. Now that I know that I've needed you so, help me, Jesus. My soul's in your hand.
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
When you sing, you pray twice.
Johnny Cash
I'm very shy really. I spend a lot of time in my room alone reading or writing or watching television.
Johnny Cash
The Master of Lifes been good to me. He has given me strength to face past illnesses, and victory in the face of defeat. He has given me life and joy where other saw oblivion. He Has given new purpose to live for, new services to render and old wounds to heal. Life and love go on, let the music play.
Johnny Cash
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry.
Johnny Cash
How well I have learned that there is no fence to sit on between heaven and hell. There is a deep, wide gulf, a chasm, and in that chasm is no place for any man.
Johnny Cash
Life is rough so you gotta be tough.
Johnny Cash
When I'm gone I'll be remembered as the workin' man who put his point across with a right hand full of knuckles.
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
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
Johnny Cash
I knew I wanted to sing when I was a very small boy. When I was probably 4 years old. My mother played a guitar and I would sit with her and she would sing and I learned to sing along with her.
Johnny Cash
I learn from my mistakes. It’s a very painful way to learn, but without pain, the old saying is, there’s no gain.
Johnny Cash
I started to write the song. And I was in Gladewater, Texas, one night with Carl Perkins and I said, I've got a good idea for a song. And I sang him the first verse that I had written, and I said it's called Because You're Mine. And he said, I Walk The Line is a better title, so I changed it to 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
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
Could it be the girls and boys are trying to be heard above your noise?
Johnny Cash
When God forgave me, I figured I'd better do it too.
Johnny Cash
The hardest thing for me in Vietnam wasn't seeing the wounded and dead. It was watching the big transport jets come in, bringing loads of fresh new boys for the war.
