Somebody said to me this morning, 'To what do you attribute your longevity?' I don't know. I mean, I couldn't have planned my life out better. By all accounts I should be dead! The abuse I put my body through: the drugs, the alcohol, the lifestyle I've lived the last 30 years!

It was such an amazing time for music in the Sixties. When popular music hit me, it was like magic was in the air.

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

Black illusion is all I ever see.

We were very pleased to have the opportunity to come to Israel and visit the holy sites in the Old City.

I have a night off on Halloween. It's Halloween for me every night. Let everybody else be Ozzy for the night. People go out dressed as me.

And I never missed one concert. In 89 shows, I think I did one a bit suspect show. In the old days, I'd pull gigs left, right and center because I was too f - - up.
