I grew up in the south, poor - on rock, dirt roads.

In Tennessee where I grew up, there were animals, farms, wagons, mules.

I want to tell people how to live spiritually. After you've bought all your houses and your clothes, you want something bigger.

Sometimes you have to let everything go - purge yourself. If you are unhappy with anything - whatever is bringing you down - get rid of it. Because you will find that when you are free, your true creativity, your true self comes out.

We're living in world, stars and dust Between heaven 'n all that surrounds us We're travellers here, spirits passing through And the love we give, is all that will endure Just like a rose after the rain Something beautiful remains Tears will leave no stains Time will ease the pain For every life that fades Something beautiful remains

First of all, I'm happy that I'm healthy.

They're still in good shape, but I'm not flashing them anymore. I'm an old lady. I leave all the flesh to the kids.
