I can't tell anybody else how to run their life or their business, but I really believe I've got a good bead on myself.

'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.

I always think of myself as a working girl.

If there's something bothering me in the business end of things with people I work with, I just say it right out.

Songwriting is my way of channeling my feelings and my thoughts. Not just mine, but the things I see, the people I care about. My head would explode if I didn't get some of that stuff out.

I've... been accused of being involved with every man I'm ever seen with or worked with. Maybe I have, maybe I ain't. I never tell if I have.

Money is like the tide: It rolls in and it rolls out. If you clutch it, you are not going to keep it.
