My songs are like my children - I expect them to support me when I'm old.
Dolly Parton

I was born with a happy heart, and I try to keep a good attitude. It's not true that I'm happy all the time because nobody is, and we all go through our things.

The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain. When I'm inspired, I get excited because I can't wait to see what I'll come up with next. Find out who you are and do it on purpose.

I don't know what the big deal is about old age. Old people who shine from the inside look 10 to 20 years younger.

No, I can't do rap music...

You'll never do a whole lot unless you're brave enough to try.

I never know tomorrow what I might be doing. I just ask God to lead me and show me and direct me and help me and support me in it. So I just wait to hear the call.
