I finally came to terms with manic depression and lithium. I've taken lithium regularly for the past few years and have had no further bouts with manic depression.

I don't care what the religion is called; as far as I'm concerned, one God, the God I adhere to, is in charge of all of them.

There were very few black people in Montana but we never felt out of place.

It used to be that if you had a pretty good record, you could stop by a station in Little Rock or Atlanta and let the DJ listen to it. No way something like that can happen now.

I was sometimes jeered by black soldiers who wanted me to sing something besides country music.

People pay attention to lyrics, and the race matter was delicate.

What qualifies me to tell people how to act or what to think? I'm Charley Pride, country singer. Period.
