Ozzy Osbourne
Better known as Ozzy Osbourne, is an English musician, famous for his solo career and as lead singer of the band Black Sabbath.
I like warming my butt by the fire.
When I was a practicing alcoholic, I was unbelievable. One side effect was immense suspicion: I'd come off tour like Inspector Clouseau on acid. 'Where's this cornflake come from? It wasn't here before.'
I've done a lot worse than jump off piers, son. Like throw a television out the window.
I just can't wake from these scary dreams.
Everybody's having fun, except me I'm the lonely one I live in shame.
When we did that album (Vol. 4) it was like one big Roman orgy-we'd be in the Jacuzzi all day doing coke, and every now and then we'd get up to do a song.
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! Now, some rare fly will fly over me, crap on my shoulder, and I'll drop dead, you know? My life story is a real-life story.
I can honestly say, all the bad things that ever happened to me were directly, directly attributed to drugs and alcohol. I mean, I would never piss on a piece of stone at the fucking Alamo at nine o'clock in the morning dressed in a woman's evening dress sober. I mean I know I'm a fucking crazy-ass but still.
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?
