Nashville is my home, and the reason why I get to do what I love.

I think I have a big fear of things spiraling out of control. Out of control and dangerous and reckless and thoughtless scares me, because people get hurt.

A letdown is worth a few songs. A heartbreak is worth a few albums.

I think that the idea of finding another person to share your life with is the most fascinating, beautiful quest you could ever be on in life. And yes, living your dreams is so important too, and a lot of times I’ve put that before everything else. But then you get to a place where the whole time you’re living these dreams, you look beside you to say to someone, “Hey, isn’t this so much fun?” And if there’s no one there to say it to, what’s the point?

They can say whatever they want about my personal life because I know what my personal life is, and it involves a lot of TV and cats and girlfriends.

I rode an elevator with a guy who was whistling the tune of 'this is the song that never ends'. Putting that on me? Come on dude.

I haven't had that one great love, which is good. I don't want that to be in the past - I want it to be in the future.
