Atlanta's my musical home. It really was the place where I really came alive.

I hope that what it comes down to at the end of the day is that people believe that I believe what I'm singing. It comes down to being believable. You don't have to be likeable; generally, though, I think I am.

I am not in 'Us Weekly.' I'd have to be going out with someone who is in there to be in there myself.

No matter what I do, I'm going to earn it.

If you told me I was going to live to 240, I would take 10 years off and try and act. I don't have that kind of time, so I'd much rather stick to playing guitar.

You cannot avoid war in life, you cannot avoid the fear of terrorism, you cannot avoid those things now, they are a part of everyday demeanor.

I look away at car crashes, and I know people who look away at car crashes, because it makes us uncomfortable to watch other people in pain.
