I appreciate film actors who respect the film making process.
Success is like winning the sweepstakes or getting killed in an automobile crash. It always happens to somebody else.
I attribute a lot of the success to Live 105, of course, because it's something they've nurtured and grown.
You know, I can be the happiest man in the world with minimal record success.
People should decide what success means for them, and not be distracted by accepting others' definitions of success.
And finally I begin to have such a success in my examinations that I found myself in a career you see.
I really started writing music to challenge myself, to see what I could write.
When I make music, it's a very visual thing. Conjures up a lot of images.
In movies, I have had the opportunity of working with some of the people that I respect very much.
I'm a big personality. I walk into a room, big and tall and loud.
I'm lucky because I do get to fly first-class now.

People think anything done from a woman's perspective is only going to appeal to women.
I get along with all the women singers, but especially Dolly Parton. We talk the same hillbilly language.
We had like a jolt of women in country, and it seems like we're just kind of there now.
I don't think women's prisons are environments for dance routines, and I don't think mass murder is humorous.
Like most musicians, I'm good at becoming immersed in the music that I am currently working on. We seldom lift up our heads to contemplate even the music we will be doing in the future, let alone what we've done in the past.
Some people work very closely with a director or a producer on something, and from the get go, they're collaborating. But typically, it's just go in for an audition, do the best you can, and if the phone rings a couple of days after the audition and ...
I'm still growing I take each day, one day-at-a-time. I'm always thinking and dreaming. As long as this heart keeps beating, there will be new things coming along.
