Quote by Geezer Butler

“Being in Black Sabbath felt like being an actor in a soap opera. It’s a minor miracle all four of the original lineup survived beyond the 1970s, let alone that we’re all still here. Along the way, we consumed enough booze and drugs to sink a battleship. Music writers spent decades trying to tear us down. There were so many lineup changes I sometimes didn’t know what band I was supposed to be in.”
