My Father and the Man in Black Quote
Johnny Cash: [On being jailed in El Paso 1965]I don't ever want out of this cell again. I just want to stay here and die. Because I'm too weak to face everyone. Knowing my family is heart broken, knowing my friends and fans are disappointed. It's more than I can reconcile with them. [Original Source: Man In Black, by Johnny Cash]

Saul Holiff: I have given much consideration to the part I've played in your life. There was a period a few years back when you were completely indifferent to your career. I like to think that I helped you to channel and direct your energies back to constructive and creative effort. If this was my only service to you I feel satisfied. However, there were many times that surgical repairs had to be brought into play. I considered it my job to make such repairs. I always respected you as an individualist and a non-conformist, but I don't feel you have recognized my efforts. [Original Source: Letter to Johnny Cash; December 21, 1965]
