I'm just a person; I like to experience whatever the feeling is and whatever I'm going through.

I always love working with children. I never had children of my own. God has his purposes. God didn't let me have children so everybody's children could be mine. That's kind of how I'm looking at it.

Anyone who knows or cares anything about real country music will agree that George Jones is the voice of it.

I am a tender-hearted person, and I feel everything to the ninth degree.

My life has been very full.

I don't think of myself as a feminist, but if someone calls me a feminist icon, that's fine. I've always stood up for women and myself in general. I have a great love and respect, because I have had beautiful sisters, aunts and my grandmas, but I love men. I totally understand the nature of men.

I just kind of wake up with a new idea and new dreams every day, and I follow that dream, as they say.
