I suppose there's a lot of people that've got a better life than me. But I don't know, I feel very fortunate and very blessed.

I wish I didn't have to perform 'Iron Man' every night.

It was always fun in the early days of Black Sabbath, when I stayed away from heavy drugs. Then someone gave me cocaine and I went, "Hallelujah!" I thought I'd found the meaning of life!

There's no present, there's no future, I don't even know about the past.

You gotta be really careful what you bite off. Don't bite off more than you can chew. It's a dangerous world.

They say military have the so-called 'secret intelligence' - this amount of intelligence must be very secret, since I've never seen any intelligent military person, nor I have seen any sense in the bloody stupid wars.

I grew up having to piss in a bucket ’cos there was no indoor shitter, and now I have these computerised Japanese super-loo things that have heated seats and wash and blow-dry your arse at the touch of a button. Give it a couple of years and I’ll have a bog with a robot arm that pulls out my turds, so I don’t have to strain.
