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 CashRick Rubin said, well, I don't know that we will sell records. He said, I would like you to go with me and sit in my living room with a guitar and two microphones and just sing to your heart's content everything you ever wanted to record. I said, that sounds good to me. So I did that. And day after day, three weeks, I sang for him.
Johnny CashYou can ask the people around me. I don't give up. I don't give up. I don't give - 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.

Johnny CashWell, I take great comfort in the words of the apostle Paul who said, โWhat I will to do, that I do not practice. But what I hate, that I do.โ And he said, โIt is no longer I who do it, but the sin that dwells within me. But who,โ he asks, โwill deliver me from this body of death?โ And he answers for himself and for me, โThrough Jesus Christ the Lord.'
