I'm lucky my wife is a strong woman. She's one of the stronger people I've ever met. It's hard for me to be away, but I know my home life is fine because my wife is there.

You gotta love and learn and learn to live.

I don't think I get the respect as a singer. With this record, I wanted to bring respect to my band.

I expect to make a career out of country music.

When somebody says to you the real USC is in L.A., tell them we were a school before they were a state.

We went to church every Sunday. When I was a kid, the only time I sang was around my family.

I work hard to let my wife know how much I love her. I try to do that every day.
