Honey, I don't care, I ain't in love with your hair, and if it all fell out I'd love you anyway.

Your heroes will help you find good in yourself.

You dont have to get beat up as many times as I did to come to your senses. Certainly I wish Id come to mine earlier than I did.

I was in church a little bit as a very young kid, but, as they say in the South, 'it didnt take.' None of it took with me.

When Mama prayed, lives were changed. Not much more than five foot tall, but mountains big and small crumbled all away.

I think every once in a while country has lost its way, but found its way back. It's always going to drift away from the traditional side, but then find a way to return. There's room for all kinds of influences be it pop, blues, gospel or whatever. But I will always say that I think we need more traditional country music coming down the pike.

When I got into my early 20s, I was going to bed one nightI was still drinking, still using drugs, and probably was drunk or high or both when I just picked up the Bible and started reading to go to sleep. I was amazed at how well I slept, but even beyond that, the next day, there was this peace of mind that was still there that I wasnt used to.
