If I had to give up performing, it wouldn't bother me too much. But I couldn't live without my writing. I put all my feelings, my very soul, into my writing. I tell the world in my songs things I wouldn't even tell my husband.

A tree reaches below the surface to gather strength for stargazing.

I think 9/11 affected everybody in one way or another.

Actually, I hear a lot of rock music. My husband is a big rock fan.

I have a strict policy that nobody cries alone in my presence.

First thing I do in the morning, after I have my breakfast and do my spiritual work, is put on my makeup and fix my hair, and I can do my makeup in 15 minutes.

A gypsy told me I was going to do great things. I was going to make all kinds of money.
