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 Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I am two people. Johnny is the nice one. Cash causes all the trouble. They fight Picture Quote #1

When I record somebody else’s song, I have to make it my own or it doesn’t feel right. I’ll say to myself, I wrote this and he doesn’t know it! Picture Quote #1

You can ask the people around me. I don’t give up. I don’t give up... 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 Picture Quote #1

Creative people have to be fed from the divine source. I have to get fed. I had to get filled up in order to pour out Picture Quote #1

You’ve got a song you’re singing from your gut, you want that audience to feel it in their gut. And you’ve got to make them think that you’re one of them sitting out there with them too. They’ve got to be able to relate to what you’re doing Picture Quote #1

It’s all fleeting. As fame is fleeting, so are all the trappings of fame fleeting. The money, the clothes, the furniture Picture Quote #1

When my wife died, I booked myself into the studio just to work, to occupy myself Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

I took the easy way, and to an extent I regret that. Still, though, the way we did it was honest. We played it and sang it the way we felt it, and there’s a lot to be said for that Picture Quote #1

It’s good to know who hates you and it is good to be hated by the right people Picture Quote #1

There’s no way around grief and loss: you can dodge all you want, but sooner or later you just have to go into it, through it, and, hopefully, come out the other side. The world you find there will never be the same as the world you left Picture Quote #1
