Patsy Cline? Larger than life! She taught me emotion: raw, sincere, unashamed.
Reba McEntire
Mama was a stickler on keeping your word. That's helped me to make the right decisions in so many situations. Because of that, I also think really hard before I make a decision because I know I'm going to have to see it through.
Reba McEntire

I had lots of breaks. I guess the one that got my foot in the door was singing the National Anthem at the National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City in '74.
Reba McEntire
