I have surrounded myself with very smart people.

I never want anything more than what's fair. The problem is, I never want anything less either. In the old-boy school of business, if a woman walks away from the table with what's rightfully hers, the man feels screwed.

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

I didn't know any gay people in my childhood.

Love is only as strong as your weakest moment.

Many of my friends are gay, male and female. I don't judge people. I don't care what people do in their bedrooms and people shouldn't care what I do in mine.

There's been a lot of talk about Jack White wanting to work with me, and I've always admired him, and of course, he lives in Nashville, too.
