Call him drunken Ira Hayes, he won't answer any more. Not the whiskey drinking Indian, nor the Marine that went to war.

More quotes by Johnny Cash
All music comes from God.
Johnny Cash
I'm not bitter. Why should I be bitter? I'm thrilled to death with life.
Johnny Cash
Sam Phillips asked me to go write a love song, or maybe a bitter weeper. So I wrote a song called, Cry Cry Cry, went back in and recorded that for the other side of the record.
Johnny Cash
[My mother] called [my voice] the gift.
Johnny Cash
I found out that there weren't too many limitations, if I did it my way.
Johnny Cash
it's good to know who hates you and it is good to be hated by the right people
Johnny Cash
When God forgave me, I figured I'd better do it too.
Johnny Cash
You've got a song you're singing from your gut, you want that audience to feel it in their gut. And you've got to make them think that you're one of them sitting out there with them too. They've got to be able to relate to what you're doing.
Johnny Cash
They're powerful, those songs. At times they've been my only way back, the only door out of the dark, bad places the black dog calls home.
Johnny Cash
Everything I have and everything I do is now given completely to Jesus Christ.
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
Stop your ears and close your eyes and try to find the face of love.
Johnny Cash
A rose looks grey at midnight, but the flame is just asleep. And steel is strong because it knows the hammer and white heat.
Johnny Cash
If you have political convictions... keep 'em to yourself
Johnny Cash
Oh, I'd love to wear a rainbow everyday, And tell the world that everything's okay, But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back, Till things are brighter, I'm the Man in Black.
Johnny Cash
Could it be the girls and boys are trying to be heard above your noise?
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'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
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
The fire and excitement may be gone now that we don't go out there and sing them anymore, but the ring of fire still burns around you and I, keeping our love hotter than a pepper sprout.
Johnny Cash
