If I had my life to live over again, I'd run barefoot, relax a bit more, I'd talk more to children, and I'd learn how they laugh.

But now it's kind of a given that a 15-year-old would have a record deal and sell a quarter of a million records. No one's expecting her to answer any deep theological questions. And I'll tell you, I was asked some deep theological questions from the git-go.

How we absorb music is unique. I know what I do. When I'm listening to music, I tend to find myself in a song. That's what really makes you connect is if you feel what that song is saying.
Amy Grant
To me, the human experience does involve a great deal of anguish. It's joyful, but it's bittersweet. I just think that's life.
Amy Grant
But to make a holiday record that involves favorite American songs and then also get to sing about Jesus birth, it just seemed like a real easy, subtle way to combine a couple of things that I love.
Amy Grant
Come Christmas Eve, we usually go to my mom and dad's. Everybody brings one gift and then we play that game when we all steal it from each other. Some are really cool, others are useful and some are a bit out there.

Depending on what day of the week it is and what time of the month it is, I'm a good friend or not a good friend. I'm more or less a good mom or not a good mom, more or less a good mate or not a good mate. That's just life, whether or not you're public.

I never thought getting older would be so great. But when it comes to depression, I have experienced less the older I've gotten.
Amy Grant
I think our culture encourages all of us to always put our best foot forward. I think it's a good thing. I think it's nice to rise to the occasion, to be kind and considerate, and have self control.
Amy Grant
Do I think all contemporary Christian music is good? No.
Amy Grant
I just think music is such a beautiful thing. It lifts the heart and buoys up your spirits - all kinds of music.
Amy Grant
If you went to your closet today, would you pull out the same outfit you wore 10 or 15 years ago? You wear feelings and faith differently as well.
Amy Grant
I've found that music allows years to fold like an accordion over each other, so I guess you don't feel the passage of time as much.
Amy Grant
I don't write songs that don't affect me on some level, because I figure if I am not moved by it, if its not something that I have a longing to celebrate or to be reminded of, if it doesn't affect me, then how can I possibly think it is going to affect somebody else. My touchstone is write something that matters.
Amy Grant
I know my own weaknesses as a human being, and as a musician, as a singer and as a woman.
Amy Grant
I can look at the future with anticipation. And it's comforting to know that someday, as Christians, we'll be able to look back and have a little more clarity on why certain things in life happened.
Amy Grant
You do your best, you do all this stuff, but the only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.
Amy Grant
I need music like I need water.
Amy Grant
Love's for fools wise enough to take a chance.
Amy Grant
There is not a formula for the way that God heals. There's not a timetable.
Amy Grant
To me, the real thrill is in making the music, and then I just trust it to find its own audience, and at times it's big and at times it's small, but that's beyond my control.
Amy Grant
