MusiCares was really good to me. I can't say enough how MusiCares helps other people. They really, really helped me. They have the greatest groups and support for musicians in recovery.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
I'd had three husbands by 23. The second was a songwriter who couldn't handle the fact the little lady was doing better than him.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
I've always been one of those people - once I start something, I have to get it all out, because it gets me.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
I don't know how I got out of some of the scrapes I was in. But I know that there's some sort of plan.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
If someone asked me to do something I didn't want to do or didn't think was right, I wouldn't do it.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
There are no rules when it comes to songwriting, so I'd turn Carter family songs from the 1930s into pop songs.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
I've always had wanderlust to try and do different things, but I always return to the music of the Carter family.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
If someone gets married at 15, they're either dumb or pregnant. I was both.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
I was thinking about it: so many of my stories are about my family life, not about being related to a lot of famous people. That's my grandma, that's my mama, my daddy, my aunt, my uncle, my stepdaddy. I'd probably tell them even if they weren't well known.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
I do feel I'm responsible to carrying on the music. That's what I was charged with as a kid. When I was a little girl, I was told, 'When we are gone' - when you're a kid, you never think they'll ever be gone - 'you have to keep the music alive, the Carter Family songs, and add your own songs.'
Quote by -Carlene Carter
I've matured as a writer and human being. I've got some wisdom under my belt.
Quote by -Carlene Carter
I moved back to Tennessee in '86 or '87. That's when I worked with the Carter Family because I really wanted to understand my roots.
