When I get an idea for a song it would gel in my mind for weeks or months, and then one day just like that, Ill write it.
Sometimes I am two people. Johnny is the nice one. Cash causes all the trouble. They fight.
I love songs about horses, railroads, land, Judgment Day, family, hard times, whiskey, courtship, marriage, adultery, separation, murder, war, prison, rambling, damnation, home, salvation, death, pride, humor, piety, rebellion, patriotism, larceny, determination, tragedy, rowdiness, heartbreak and love. And Mother. And God.
You can ask the people around me. I don't give up. I don't give up. I don't give - and it's not out of frustration and desperation that I say I don't give up. I don't give up because I don't give up. I don't believe in it.
I'm not really concerned about boundaries. I just follow my conscience and my heart. Follow your heart. That's what I do. Compassion is something I have a lot of, because I've been through a lot of pain in my life. Anybody who has suffered a lot of pain has a lot of compassion.
A rose looks grey at midnight, but the flame is just asleep. And steel is strong because it knows the hammer and white heat.
The future is what matters — because one never reaches it, but always stays in the present — like the White Queen who had to run like the wind to remain in the same spot.
Chasing a burning girl down a city street is a lot harder than it sounds. Civilians tend to stop and stare and this turns them into human bowling pins. Slow whiny bowling pins.
When you are younger, you worry about what people think about you. When you are older, you realize that no one was ever thinking about you at all.
I think CGI is interesting, but it's too expensive and limiting in terms of what you can do shot-by-shot.
