I'm not trying to twist people's heads around. I'm not trying to say, "Believe in me."

Ozzy is a powerful and attractive man. When I grow up I want to be Ozzy.

I used to smoke cigarettes, smoke dope, do smack, every f - - thing. First, I couldn't function without it. Then I couldn't do anything with or without it. Then I thought, "This is the end of the line for my fun days."

I can't change the past, but I can try to make a better future for me.

We were always told we were one step behind Deep Purple, one step behind Led Zeppelin, one step behind everybody. Our manager didn't want to let us know how popular we were. It's only after we did Ozzfest that people started telling me stuff. I thought they were taking the piss. People would come up to me and go, "Respect."

Being in Birmingham, I thought I was going to be a gangster or a bag-runner or a thief. I heard music and I was determined to get out of there.

Mick Jagger, the greatest of all front men I've ever met in my life.
