'9 to 5,' that little song, that little story, just won't ever end. Just like 'I Will Always Love You,' it just keeps comin' back, popping up its head in one way or another.

With the first money I ever made I bought my Mommy and Daddy a car, and helped them fix their house up.

I write what I write, say what I say, 'cause I feel what I feel, and if I did it different, it would make me a liar! So I'd rather be an honest person than a good liar.

If there's something you know and there's something you feel, but you can't quite express it, you will hear it somewhere. And you don't have to worry, because someone will get it sung out.

I will never retire unless I have to.

People just overshoot trying to find God. They're going outside and trying everything. They don't realize that it's right inside themselves.

A tree reaches below the surface to gather strength for stargazing.
