My friends have always told me that rock stardom was wasted on me.

I'm so cool that the kids come to my bedroom and go, 'Mom! Turn the music down!'

Instead of taking five or six of the prescriptions, I decided to go a natural route and smoke marijuana.

People ask me, 'Is being a parent the be-all, end-all?' And I say, 'Oh, it definitely is up to the person, and it is difficult, it can be very difficult, and it can be extremely healing.' That's what I have found, that the children are mirrors. Everyone is a mirror, but children especially because they're day and night and all day long.

I've been a rock star since you were very young. But I've never encountered anything as powerful as cancer.

In country music, there are certain female artists, like Gretchen Wilson, where you're going to find lesbians because they're responding to that more aggressive side.

I am a songwriter. I do get to put my personal experiences in song.
