[on Johnny Cash] Do you realize that he gets three million a year for singing that shit? “I walk the line, I keep my eyes wide open all the time.” I met him in Nashville. He said, “You haven’t heard my other stuff?” “No”, I said, “I haven’t.” He sent us his complete 27 fucking albums. Jesus, Johnny, I like your stuff, but for Christ’s sake . . .
