More quotes by Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash
Understand your man, meditate on it.
Johnny Cash
I could wrap myself in the warm cocoon of a song and go anywhere.
Johnny Cash
You can ask the people around me. I don't give up. I don't give up. I don't give - and it's not out of frustration and desperation that I say I don't give up. I don't give up because I don't give up. I don't believe in it.
Johnny Cash
People call me wild. Not really though, I'm not.I guess I've never been normal, not what you call Establishment. I'm country.

Johnny Cash
If I'm anything, I'm not a singer but I'm a song stylist.
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
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide.
Johnny Cash
I have tried drugs and a little of everything else, and there is nothing in the world more soul-satisfying than having the kingdom of God building inside you and growing.
Johnny Cash
Take one fresh and tender kiss Add one stolen night of bliss One girl, one boy, some grief, some joy Memories are made of this.
Johnny Cash
Call him drunken Ira Hayes, he won't answer any more. Not the whiskey drinking Indian, nor the Marine that went to war.
Johnny Cash
Until things are brighter.. I'm the man in black.
Johnny Cash
I start a lot more songs than I finish, because I realize when I get into them, they're no good. I don't throw them away, I just put them away, store them, get them out of sight.
Johnny Cash
The ones that you're calling wild are going to be the leaders in a little while.
Johnny Cash
All music comes from God.
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
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
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine I keep my eyes wide open all the time I keep the ends out for the tie that binds Because you're mine, I walk the line.
Johnny Cash
