Laughter Through Tears Is My Favorite Emotion.

Music Is My Personal Addiction. So Much Of Everything I've Done Has Only Been To Open More Doors For The Music Itself. It All Gets Back To The Fact That I Am, First Of All, A Songwriter And A Singer.

I Think My Life Actually Changed At 40. That's When You Realize You Can't Ride The Fence Anymore. You Either Have To Get On One Side Or The Other. I Think Some Of My Best Years Were Between 40 And 50: I Got My Priorities Straight And Life Is Good To Me Now. It's Only Other People Who Say, "god, She's 50 Years Old!" As If I'm Over The Hill. I Feel Like I Just Started.

I Ain't Never Far Away From A Pencil And Paper Or A Tape Recorder.

I'll Bring My Grits When I Travel, Because I Get So Hungry On The Road.

Everything Is Nothing When You Got No One.
