Having three daughters, it is important for me to set a good example and teach them to make decisions that are healthy for your heart no matter what age you are.

Faith that it's not always in your hands or things don't always go the way you planned, but you have to have faith that there is a plan for you, and you must follow your heart and believe in yourself no matter what.

I love connecting with the fans. I love being on stage.

What I would like my legacy to be is that of a person who took good care of her family and sang some songs that made a difference in some way. I hope I'll be remembered as somebody who was always down to earth and who handled her career and other people with honesty, integrity and class.

Love's the only house big enough for all the pain in the world.

Let freedom ring, let the white dove sing, let the weak be strong, let the right be wrong... it's Independence Day.

I am happy that women can relate to my songs, and hopefully men can too.
