I have too much drive and determination to let anything falter me.

I would love to do a duet with Tim McGraw. I think that would be fun.

I do remember the people who believed in me in the beginning. I'll never forget that.

I have an amazing family. I was raised in a wonderful mid-west family.

I think I have a good head on my shoulders.

I'll never sing something that I've never been through. So even if I didn't write it, I have to have at least experienced it.

I think music changes and it evolves.

Hockey is my favorite because I'm from Michigan. I used to figure-skate and root for the Red Wings.

I love music, that it changes so much, but I also want to keep a bit of the country roots to make it country. I don't want to go too far away from it, or I would do pop music.

It's honestly every time that I'm doing something, and every time I visit a station and hear my song on the radio and people buying my stuff, I'm like 'Are you kidding me? This is insane!'

L.A. was never me. Nashville is my home.

Live life like a Legend, and society will start acknowledging you as a great Entrepreneur !

I feel so grateful to discover that each new day brings me the opportunity to watch the sunrise and fall in love with you again.

I think there would be less torture with a warrant requirement than without one.

Don't let negative people determine your self-worth.

In some cases, the measured use of force is all that protects us from a chaotic world ruled by force.

That's the magic of moviemaking. You clearly identify one scenario with the other, and it's a completely different experience.

When you have bacon in your mouth, it doesn't matter who's president.

Later, when they were almost asleep he had called out to her. 'Finke?' 'Yeah?' 'We'll make a great team. You plant. I build.

As soon as you are willing to say 'it's not for you', you're freed up to make art.

To country people Cows are mild, And flee from any stick they throw; But I’m a timid town bred child, And all the cattle seem to know.
