Don't get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.

I'll be like Bob Hope, touring when I'm 100.

Having a big gay following, I get hate mail and threats. Some people are blind or ignorant, and you can't be that prejudiced and hateful and go through this world and still be happy.

My husband calls me 'catfish.' He says I'm all mouth and no brains.

When I do listen to music, I'm more prone to listen to the people I've always listened to: George Jones, Otis Redding, Alison Krauss and Emmylou Harris.

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

People think I'm as shallow and superficial as I look, and it's a surprise when they find out, sure enough, I am.
