More quotes by Johnny Cash
Until things are brighter.. I'm the man in black.
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
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.
Johnny Cash
I was wearing black clothes almost from the beginning. I feel comfortable in black. I felt like black looked good onstage, that it was attractive, so I started wearing it all the time.
Johnny Cash
I don't give up because I don't give up. I don't believe in it.
Johnny Cash
Sometimes I am two people. Johnny is the nice one. Cash causes all the trouble. They fight.

[My mother] made the money to send me.
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
When I get an idea for a song it would gel in my mind for weeks or months, and then one day just like that, Ill write it.
Johnny Cash
Rick Rubin came to my concert in Orange County, Calif. I believe this was, like, '83 when he first came and listened to the show. And then afterwards, I went in the dressing room and sat and talked to him.
Johnny Cash
Of emotions, of love, of breakup, of love and hate and death and dying, mama, apple pie, and the whole thing. It covers a lot of territory, country music does.
Johnny Cash
When God forgave me, I figured I'd better do it too.
Johnny Cash
The gospel of Christ must always be an open door with a welcome sign for all.
Johnny Cash
When I was 17 - 16, my father and I cut wood all day long and I was swinging that crosscut saw and hauling wood.
Johnny Cash
All your life, you will be faced with a choice. You can choose love or hate…I choose love.
Johnny Cash
All music comes from God.
Johnny Cash
Don't take voice lessons. Do it your way.
Johnny Cash
The more I learn, the more excited I get.
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.
