My mom said, What I want is a happy kid, not a rich kid. That's what I root for. She saw how much joy I got from playing music, and those years were leaner than lean!

More quotes by Vince Gill
And from my place, and from the time that I went through my divorce, I also had my father pass away in the middle of all that. And it kind of made everything else just kind of like the back burner, you know.
Vince Gill
I've always been more drawn to being normal than being famous.
Vince Gill
So I didn't have anything to do with picking the songs, but I got to musically take them in places I thought might be interesting, so it was a real neat collaboration among the three of us.
Vince Gill
Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.
Vince Gill
We all get caught up in the process, especially when you have a wave of success. But to me, being creative is not about rehashing everything you've done over and over. It's to continue to grow, continue to get better.
Vince Gill
I don't want to impress somebody, I want to move somebody. Say the most with the least.
Vince Gill
I made records in the past that are as traditional as any other country records that have been made, but at the same time the records have a contemporary slant on it too.
Vince Gill
I've always felt like every note of a song is of equal value.
Vince Gill
There ain't no future in the past.
Vince Gill
I don't chase what everyone else is looking for. Being creative is all about you.
Vince Gill
I do not like being famous. I like being normal.
Vince Gill
This is just strictly me wanting to make a record that is the real deal. It is all the stuff that I have learned and know that I remember. It's what I perceive as country music is about.
Vince Gill
When you lose people that are close to you it brings everything into focus, and the rest kind of gets put on the back burner.
Vince Gill
I had just lost my dad and I remembered all the songs we used to go and hear at concerts, and the records around the house and sometimes we'd play together.
Vince Gill
Through music you learn not to care about the color of someone's skin.
Vince Gill
It is not that I don't like contemporary country music because I do. I love it. I have recorded a lot and have had great success recording records that have not been very traditional country records.
Vince Gill
My last two records that I made were both quite pointed in one direction and I think I do my best stuff when it's all over the map, when there's a couple traditional things, a couple pretty rocking things.
Vince Gill
It really does take a lot of time to make records, to be in the studio and do all that stuff.
Vince Gill
I would love to hear someone write a song like 'He Stopped Loving Her Today' rather than 'You're hot. I'm hot. We're in a truck.' It's just mind-numbing to me.
Vince Gill
You learn a whole lot more about a person if they have bad breaks and all those kind of things.
