I understand that music is a business, but for people who have control of their stuff, like little Taylor and other artists, I think you'll find them standing up for their music every chance they get.

Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide.

What I do is so this world will know that it will not change me.

I don't fly any awards at the house. Any award you get is usually for something you've done in the past. And I like to keep looking forward.

True country music is honesty, sincerity, and real life to the hilt.

James Taylor and God are the reasons I play music.

I've got friends in low places, where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away.
