I have no regrets except that I wasn't up to keep Randy (Rhoads) from getting on that plane.
[on Kelly's drummer friend] Anyone that beats fucking skins for a living has got to be somewhat weird.
We are not going to continue until we hear the fucking roof rattle.
Here's the thing. I always hear that whole 'metal is dead' crap. The truth of the matter is that when we started the Ozzfest, media-wise, yes, metal was dead. But as far as the kids went, it was still huge. It was just that radio and MTV decided it wasn't in vogue with what they wanted to do at the time, so the average person didn't hear too much about it. That's why when it comes to picking the new acts each summer, we have people out there on the internet and in the clubs looking for good music and finding bands that people are excited about. I want to know what the kids are into, because I don't trust the industry.
You don't need to hire a dog therapist, you just need to wake up at 7 am and open the fucking door!
I like the smell of armpits in the morning. It's like victory.
When you're young, you're stupid. You do silly things. I did it (the O-Z-Z-Y tattoo across his knuckles) when I was 14. I was in jail for something. I could have had it removed, but why? It's my trademark. People stop me and say, 'Let me have a look at your hand.'
Nobody tells me fuck all!
Turn that thing off, its driving me mad!
[To Kelly, after he's become suspicious] You haven't been playing doctors and nurses have you?
Well, its not that bad. I thought she was going to show me a picture of uhhhh...an eagle on her ass or something.
I've had every known chemical--cocaine, booze--and tobacco is the hardest one in the world for me to quit. You watch old flicks? It's suggestion by looking at something: You see a cigarette, and it makes you want to smoke!
I am a raging alcoholic, but I don't want my kids to do the same.
I can't believe I'm still here, I know I should be dead.
Nobody ever told me, I found out for myself, You gotta believe in foolish miracles, it's not how you play the game, it's if you win or lose, you can choose, don't confuse, win or lose.
There is something fucking unbelievable about seeing all of the fans go crazy and chanting 'Ozzy!' I would pay to see them..
I have a message for anyone coming to the Ozzfest this summer (Summer, 2000): If you're planning to jump up onstage during my set, please do not give me any bear hugs, because they fucking hurt. Listen to me, I'm dead serious. On the first night of last year's tour, this enormous guy jumped up onstage and gave me a huge bear hug. He crushed 3 of my ribs and I had to do the whole tour in absolute agony. I couldn't believe it, the first fucking show!
I push this one button and the shower goes on and I think, where the fuck am I?
I'm like a junky without an addiction.
