I say I'm not a singer, so that means I can't sing. But - doesn't it?

The first time I knew what I wanted to do with my life was when I was about four years old. I was listening to an old Victrola, playing a railroad song...I thought that was the most wonderful, amazing thing...That you could take this piece of wax and music would come out of that box. From that day on, I wanted to sing on the radio.

I don't give up because I don't give up. I don't believe in it.

It's all fleeting. As fame is fleeting, so are all the trappings of fame fleeting. The money, the clothes, the furniture.

I think in my world of religion, you're called to preach or you don't preach. Called by God to preach. I never been ordained by God to preach the gospel. I have a calling, it's called to perform and sing.

It was kind of a prodding myself to play I Walk The Line straight.

Burn my Flag and I will shoot you........but I'll shoot you with a lot of love, like a good American
