I would be a huge hypocrite if I didn't tell you that at one time in my life I thought the way that you made music was you got on a major label and you got famous.

I grew up with lots of animals and I related more to them than I did to people. I feel a lot of empathy for them.

I remember people would talk about Country Music like it was this sexist, lame thing. Well, no, because Dolly Parton is writing songs and playing her guitar and producing. She's doing it all and she's got hits on the radio.

Rich kids who write songs about food stamps always piss me off. I'm not going to write any songs about that, either.

It's like sometimes, you can just lay back and it takes the pressure off of you.

The Bible tries to make humans not animals the whole time. I think it's a bit of a mistake.

All I want to do is sing on other people's records.
