More quotes by Reba McEntire
If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose, If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you, If you don't get drunk on my kiss, If you think you can do better than this then I guess we're done. Let's not drag this on, Consider me gone.

But I like to listen to demos. I like to hear the finished product. It's like listening to a song - I mean, a story. If you're going to sit here and tell me a story, I just like to listen. I don't want to make them up.

Reba McEntire
I think it's a wonderful time for a woman.

If you're happy, you've got the Lord on your side.
Reba McEntire
Be different, stand out, and work your butt off.
Reba McEntire
I always like story songs, Dolly Parton, Tom T. Hall, Mel Tillis, Red Stegall, when they'd do their story songs. I was totally enthralled.
Reba McEntire
When you're a very ambitious person, the things that are disappointing are when other people around you aren't as enthusiastic.
Reba McEntire
My grandma was a huge believer, very spiritual, probably the most spiritual person I've ever known in my life.
Reba McEntire
So, we come out to Los Angeles. And we met with every network. We met with show runners, directors, writers, everything. And what we had an idea for, they didn't like. And what they had an idea for, we didn't like. So, we went home.
Reba McEntire
I've got CDs in my car, listening all the time for that next song, because everybody's looking.
Reba McEntire
But I think a song that is really emotionally packed, with a great melody that just will soar, that's the keeper.
Reba McEntire
For no. 1, it's great writing, super writing. The second thing is that it's great chemistry with all the actors. We just all got along from the very start. Very get-go, we all got along. We just - it was just like we were all meant to be there together.

The biggest challenge in my life is getting all these kids raised. I've helped with nieces, stepchildren and my own son, so the biggest challenge is making sure the kids are raised and finding enough quality time with them.
