Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most.

I don't want you to play me a riff that's going to impress Joe Satriani; give me a riff that makes a kid want to go out and buy a guitar and learn to play.

I got rabies shots for biting the head off a bat but that's OK - the bat had to get Ozzy shots.

Maybe it's not too late to learn how to love and forget how to hate.

Sometimes I'm scared of being Ozzy Osbourne. But it could have been worse. I could have been Sting.

Neither an assembly line nor a stock market nor an oil well did it, simply what came from one small skull and that one right hand.

Thank everyone who calls out your faults, your anger, your impatience, your egotism; do this consciously, voluntarily.

People on both sides of any conflict believe they are right, whether it's on a TV show or in the real world.

I really do think of them as post-minimalist sculptures, inspired in large part by some very early spacecraft that NASA built.

What is full of redundancy or formula is predictably boring. What is free of all structure or discipline is randomly boring. In between lies art.
