It doesn't really matter to me what the rest of country is doing. I'm not caught up in trying to make a record that sounds like everybody else. That, to me, is a record label's absolute biggest downfall.

I'm proud to have so many great friends at country radio who believe in what I do - thanks to all of them.

I want to see success right away. And I want to never give up, never stop.

I enjoy every minute, because there are going to be a lot of moments in your future that you're going to wish you held onto longer.

The way that I am now, I don't want to accept mediocrity. I don't want to accept the easy road.

I think the Lord gives us everything we can handle, nothing more.

I need to find a church on Sunday. I need to say 'please' and 'thank you,' 'yes sir' and 'no ma'am.' Do the little things because that's part of being an adult.
