I still close my eyes and go home - I can always draw from that.

I'm so thankful I can write songs. I can capture all those memories in my songs and keep those memories alive.

I don't keep up with a lot of trends. I've never been a fashion horse. I'm so busy writing my songs, trying to maintain my business, and all the new things that come along. I stay working all the time.

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

Money ain't everything.

If we all climb together, we could climb the highest hill.
