My feet have been my best friend for the last 40 years. I've just been a dancing fool on stage, and after awhile you just kind of wear them out.

I had been on the junior Olympic team in high school for trampoline; I could do twenty-six back flips in a row.

I'm grateful for the road. It gets me in shape. I feel like I'm 25 years old after ther first or second week.

I don't think anything is forever, but when my kids tell me they love me, that's forever.

Now I'm way into suits that I can put on whether I took a shower or not, and wear barefoot and paint my toes black or whatever color the suit is. It's very cool to wear suits like that. Roll up the sleeves and just say yee-haw.

Fake it until you make it. Pretend to be somebody until that somebody turns into you.

The fact that I'm still constantly smiling is a remarkable thing, but I love getting out on the road, meeting my fans. I love hearing them say wonderful things and I love being able to thank them in person for reading me.
