You've got to continue to grow, or you're just like last night's cornbread - stale and dry.

I was the first woman ever named Entertainer of the Year in country music.

When I'd tell people I like country music they'd get this look on their faces. People were kind of ashamed of country.

I believe in education and wish I had a better one.

I know there's some kind of history to mountain music-like it came from Ireland or England or Scotland and we kept up the tradition.

A woman's two cents worth is worth two cents in the music business.

I avoid going through places where there's too much poverty.
