I went to bed hungry many nights as a child. It was a Dream that dressed me up when I was ragged, and it was a Dream that filled me up when I was hungry. Now it's my Dream to see that no child in this world ever goes hungry, certainly not here in America, the most bountiful country in the world. We can do better...we must!

Being brought up very religious, I have a fear of people that look to idol gods.

Being a star just means that you just find your own special place and that you shine where you are. To me that's what being a star means.

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold, I'd have all the treasures my pockets could hold.

A lot of dreams can turn to nightmares... if you don't really work them.

I'm working on my life story. I'm not decided if it's going to be a musical or a movie with music in it.

Years ago when I first started being a big star I had fans that were fanatical. It was when "Jolene" was a big hit.
