Whatever people are doing, they're probably going to be doing it five years from now. You have your banker, your general store runner, the principal of the school, and things of that sort. It's nice to see that, and to get old with other people.

Even the sad roots songs have a lot of good stories to them, and the murder ballads are good too. I mean, who doesn't like to watch a nice gory murder film on TV?

If you want to get broken in good, put four girls on the road together in a van and tour up and down the country.

Im constantly being inspired by the old days and taking things from the past and allowing them to lift me up where I am now.

There are so many different versions of "Tennessee Waltz" and they're all so good.

If you're going to be stuck somewhere forever, you might as well be around good people!

I don't even want to call it God. I just want to call it connecting with something that's greater than I am. So that's the biggest thing from Tennessee - the spirit.
