More quotes by Johnny Cash
I wear black because I'm comfortable in it. But then in the summertime when it's hot I'm comfortable in light blue.
Johnny Cash
it's good to know who hates you and it is good to be hated by the right people
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
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
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
My mother always told me that any talent is a gift of God and I always believed it. If I quit, I would just live in front of the television and get fat and die pretty soon.
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
I would take songs that I'd loved as a child and redo them in my mind for the new voice I had, the low voice.
Johnny Cash
You miss a lot of opportunities by making mistakes, but that's part of it: knowing that you're not shut out forever, and that there's a goal you still can reach.
Johnny Cash
God Ain't no stained glass window, cause he never keeps his window closed.
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
We'll all be equal under the grass, and God's got a heaven for country trash.
Johnny Cash
I read novels but I also read the Bible. And study it, you know? And the more I learn, the more excited I get.
Johnny Cash
It was kind of a prodding myself to play I Walk The Line straight.
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've never been accused of a felony. I never spent time behind bars except for a few overnight jail times back in the Sixties. [But] I think there's a little bit of a criminal in all of us. Everybody's done something they don't want anybody to know about.
Johnny Cash
I'm not bitter. Why should I be bitter? I'm thrilled to death with life.
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
Because you're mine, I walk the line.
Johnny Cash
A person knows when it just seems to feel right to them. Listen to your heart.
