Music is not just my passion it's my companion.

I remember my uncle and my father telling me that my mother didn't want me because I was blind. She thought being blind was a disgrace and a punishment from God. I understand that a lot of young mothers probably wouldn't know what to do in that situation, but over your life you learn to forgive everything.

I am a Christian. I know I am a Christian, knowing that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior.

They say love will find a way. I know determination will.

Work for the fun of it, and the money will arrive some day.

I feel this is a family here, so kinda regardless of whatever happens in your life, you always can come home to the Grand Ole Opry, thank God.

This business is always changing. If you're going to be a leader, you've got to take chances.
