You are the song of every bird, you are the poet's every word, every artist's picture, every writer's play.

I hope people realise that there is a brain underneath the hair and a heart underneath the boobs.

My biggest extravagances are also investments. I have several houses in California, a house in Nashville, an office complex, and I bought the old home place in Tennessee. They are different places for me to write, but I can turn right around and sell them.

I love Indian, Italian and Mexican food. And if it's a romantic type of thing, I like a good French restaurant.

I just don't have time to get old!

If I have one more facelift I'll have a beard!

When you're 40, you can't ride the fence anymore. You gotta make definite decisions about your life.
