Florida Highway, 1986. Lonely slum. I passed through on low wheels. It was hot outside. Shacks, gas stations that didn’t work, dead corn in fields, children on the road, retarded and dulled by the heat. Two girls waved as I passed.
I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds
There’s one thing about Black Sabbath which should not be understated: If Black Sabbath is missing any one of its members it’s no longer Black Sabbath.
All by yourself, unable to express the pain of your distress with your deeper inside. You alienate yourself and everybody else.
Loneliness adds beauty to life. It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better.

Pizza makes me think that anything is possible.
When you start to doubt yourself the real world will eat you alive.
Once you say something, it stays said. I apologized to anyone who may have been hurt by what I said, and I really meant it. I am absolutely not interested in hurting anyone, or being mean or insensitive.
The average is the borderline that keeps mere men in their place. Those who step over the line are heroes by the very act. Go.
