I once had a dream about getting a marriage, house in the country, and at the end of the day we'd retire, but I'm never going to retire.

I do miss the social aspect of sitting in a pub with a pint but you know what when I get down to it I never went for a pint. I went to a pub to get f**ked up. If it was just going for a pint that would be ok but once I start I just can't stop.

There are no impossible dreams.

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."

I am a raging alcoholic and a raging addict and I didnt want to see my kids do the same thing

I like the word f-k. F-king deal with it and move on to the first f-king question you have.

There is something f-king unbelievable about seeing all of the fans go crazy and chanting 'Ozzy!' I would pay to see them.
