I've had great fans, and they've been so loyal over the years.

I'm the luckiest man alive, this is the best day of my life.

From here on after let's stay the way we are right now. And share all the love and laughter that a lifetime will allow.

I always enjoy it when I walk on stage. There were some times when I was working so much in the '80s, and I felt really burnt-out. But I'd be up there singing and not be 10,000 million miles away, you know, just opening my mouth and the words coming out.

You will always be the miracle that makes my life complete. And as long as there is breath in me, I'll make yours just as sweet.

I get asked all the time, "What is a George Strait song?" I know it when I hear it. I don't seek a specific tempo or lyric or melody. It just has to make sense. Maybe it is natural because I was given the gift to sing.

The almighty dollar and the lust for world wide fame, slowly killed tradition, and for that someone should hang.
