Daddy's working boots have taken many steps for us.

Understanding isn't learned from punishment and anger. An iron has no gentle touch, and love ain't learned from hate.

I stay close to my roots and my family. I never want to forget any part of it. I'm still just a hillbilly at heart, thus a Backwoods Barbie.

To me it's a two-way street. They're good to me, and I'm good to them. It's a natural thing for me to love people, and I think people sense it. ... I am secure with the kind of person I am. I don't feel like I'm better than anyone, but I'm just as good as anyone.

I have little feet because nothing grows in the shade.

It's almost like being trapped in some other form. The real me is so different from the way I look on the outside.

I'm a showgirl, as you can tell. I'm ever ready.
