To me, Sabbath was always just a really heavy blues band. That s all we were. We just took those blues roots and made them heavier.

If you are a pop band, don't say you're a metal band. Poison and Warrant were about as metal as the Backstreet Boys.

I don't feel a lack of hope. It's just disappointment that after all these years we're still fighting meaningless wars for a handful of people.

The '80s were the worst period. You had these horrible pop bands growing their hair and calling themselves metal.

If you polish things too much, it loses the feeling

When you see all of these bands citing you as influences, it makes you feel relevant

Without a doubt, Ozzy is the craziest person I've ever met. Son of Sam is a close second.

Don't misunderstand people by smile or appearance.every person is not living life some one just spend the life

Jesus was the first great teacher of men who showed a genuine sympathy for childhood. When He said "Of such is the kingdom of heaven," it was a revelation.

The most exciting thing about women's liberation is that this century will be able to take advantage of talent and potential genius that have been wasted because of taboos.

Karma is your survival and your bondage. And if you handle it right, it can also be your liberation.

Hatred is the air I breathe. It permeates every cell in my body.

You can be a nice guy that wants to kill himself.
