The little I am exposed to hurts my feelings. The only things I can really control are my songs and my behavior. The rest? If I focused on it, that would lead to insanity.

I could get drunk and run around Nashville naked. But I won't because I want to set a good example for my fans. I think they deserve to have a role model.

I’ve learned that you can’t predict [love] or plan for it. For someone like me who is obsessed with organization and planning, I love the idea that love is the one exception to that. Love is the one wild card.

As you experience love and relationships, you start to realize that love tends to end in a very painful goodbye.

I definitely know that there's somebody looking out for me, because I could never do this alone.

Love is one of those things that should be so simple. You don't need to think about it and over analyze it when it's good.

Got a long list of ex-lovers, they'll tell you I'm insane. But I got a blank space baby, and I'll write your name.
