You know what, I'm probably one of the most blessed people there's ever been, and I thank God for it.

That's what love is made of, snakes, snails, and puppy dog tails, sugar, spice, and everything nice.

I really haven't strayed too far, musically, from my roots

The music business has made a 360. It's a whole 'nother game. It's not nearly what it was. And I fear for it, because, you know, with the advent of the computer and online and downloading and all these things, they have destroyed - that stuff has destroyed the record business, not the music business, but the record business. The music business is well, and it's alive and thriving. Now, I hope something happens to turn it back around to the point whereas it's - you're earning a living from writing your songs, from your work, you know, because it's not like that anymore.

You are most certainly the inspiration for all of today's rock 'n' roll guitarists. Your music is timeless.

I always try to write a song, I never just want to write a record. Originally I was not writing songs for myself. ....And I can say this, most of the people who have recorded my songs are songwriters themselves. ... Even if I don't release it myself, somebody else might hear it and want to record it. When you write a song, it gives it that potential. When you write a song, a song has longevity. ... So I wanted to sing inspirational music, and that's exactly how I approached it-only the words have been changed to declare my relationship with God. Songwriting is my gift from God.

There is nothing that means more to a woman than a love she can count on.
