More quotes by Ozzy Osbourne
We were always told we were one step behind Deep Purple, one step behind Led Zeppelin, one step behind everybody. Our manager didn't want to let us know how popular we were. It's only after we did Ozzfest that people started telling me stuff. I thought they were taking the piss. People would come up to me and go, Respect.

To be a parent, especially to rock & roll kids, I think being a parent is the most difficult job on the face of the earth. You hate to say things that will upset your kids, but then sometimes you have to because you can't let them run around wild.

Sex isn't the priority anymore, now I'm 65. But it still goes on. I want it and she doesn't, same as ever.

Jesus Christ was the original rock'n'roll star. He gave people reasons to live in the rut they were living in. He was the first man to say, You don't have to have human sacrifices, 'cause human sacrifices hurt somebody, you know? Just believe in the spirit that is within you.

Ozzy Osbourne
I'm about caring, I'm about people, and I'm about entertaining people. I'm a family man. A husband. A father. I've been a lot of other things over the years, which we don't really want to talk about.
Ozzy Osbourne
I knew it was time to get off of reality TV when someone asked me if I sang as well as acted.

Sometimes I'm scared of being Ozzy Osbourne. But it could have been worse. I could have been Sting.
Ozzy Osbourne
Somebody said to me this morning, 'To what do you attribute your longevity?' I don't know. I mean, I couldn't have planned my life out better. By all accounts I should be dead! The abuse I put my body through: the drugs, the alcohol, the lifestyle I've lived the last 30 years!
Ozzy Osbourne
When you're young, you're stupid. You do silly things.
Ozzy Osbourne
Chocolate thickens the saliva, which isn't good news if you've gotta recite Shakespeare or sing Iron Man. Having said that, you're not supposed to drink tea either but I still do before gigs. It's not very rock and roll, but it's like a magic potion to me.
Ozzy Osbourne
You've got to believe in yourself, or no one will believe in you. Imagination is like a bird on the wing, flying free for you to use.
Ozzy Osbourne
It [retirement] was absolutely boring. You can't go and say, 'I'm retired now. That's it!' It won't take long and you're really gone for good and someone throws the last shovel of dirt on a coffin with your name on it. That's the moment you're really retiring - when you die.
Ozzy Osbourne
Be good and honest to your fellow man and try to do something good for somebody.

I have a night off on Halloween. It's Halloween for me every night. Let everybody else be Ozzy for the night. People go out dressed as me.

Killing a pig for a good old fry-up is one thing. But there's no excuse for being cruel, even if you're a bored teenage kid.

For years I've had neurological problems. I used to shake a lot and I was on medication - I paid about $700,000 for one year of pills. I was taking 40-odd different ones a day.
