The goal is to try and make the perfect song. Which of course will never happen.
Silence is more musical than any song.

The Grand Ole Opry is an artist, and I am proud to be one of its songs.
I don't do every song that comes my way; I'm very choosy.
To see fans singing your songs back to you is an indescribable thing.
