Thou shalt not whine' should be the eleventh commandment.

I've got CDs in my car, listening all the time for that next song, because everybody's looking.

My grandma was a huge believer, very spiritual, probably the most spiritual person I've ever known in my life.

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.

I grew up in southeastern Oklahoma on a working cattle ranch, and it was always very romantic to me: The West, the cowboy, the Western way of life.
Reba McEntire
I'm open to any kind of situation in a song as long as it touches my heart.
Reba McEntire
We all love being outdoors. Grandma was in her garden or fishing Mama loves to fish and I love to be outside. We all love the Lord.

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.
Reba McEntire
I don’t think there's ever been a point in my career where I've said, 'I've made it.' What does that mean, 'I've made it?' Made it to what? If you say, 'I've made it.' then are you finished? I don't want to be finished. I don't want to quit.
Reba McEntire
Life's supposed to be about making the path a little gentler for those traveling behind you.

I totally love to act. I don't care if it's a musical, a comedy. I just like to work and interact with other people.

That's what is so great about being able to record a 13-song album. You can do a very eclectic group of songs. You do have some almost pop songs in there, but you do have your traditional country, story songs. You have your ballads, your happy songs, your sad songs, your love songs, and your feisty songs.
Reba McEntire
