More quotes by Johnny Cash
I'm not bitter. Why should I be bitter? I'm thrilled to death with life.
Johnny Cash
Life is the question and life is the answer, and God is the reason and love is the way.
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
I wore black because I liked it. I still do, and wearing it still means something to me. It's still my symbol of rebellion -- against a stagnant status quo, against our hypocritical houses of God, against people whose minds are closed to others' ideas.
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 don't give up because I don't give up. I don't believe in it.
Johnny Cash
I knew Bob Dylan was searching for the truth and had been for years. And anyone who Really wants the truth ends up at Jesus
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
San Quentin, may you rot and burn in hell. May your walls fall and may I live to tell.
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
If you have political convictions... keep 'em to yourself
Johnny Cash
Everybody was wearing rhinestones, all those sparkly clothes, and cowboy boots. I decided to wear a black shirt and pants and see if I could get by with it. I did and I've worn black clothes ever since.
Johnny Cash
We'll all be equal under the grass, and God's got a heaven for country trash.
Johnny Cash
Of travel I've had my share, man, I've been everywhere.
Johnny Cash
A person knows when it just seems to feel right to them. Listen to your heart.
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
When I think about country music, I think about America.
Johnny Cash
Success is having to worry about every damn thing in the world, except money.
Johnny Cash
My way of communicating with God as a boy (and often even now) was through the lyrics of a song. . . . So I didn't have the problem some people do who say, I don't know how to pray. I used the songs to communicate with God. . . . To me, songs were the telephone to heaven, and I tied up the line quite a bit.
Johnny Cash
It's like a novelist writing far out things. If it makes a point and makes sense, then people like to read that. But if it's off in left field and goes over the edge, you lose it. The same with musical talent, I think.
