Obedience brings blessings.

I surround myself with positive, productive people of good will and decency.

I promote peace and positivity.

I'd always find the positive in someone.

Secrets...are the very root of cool.

He never complained. He seemed to have no instinct for the making much of oneself that complaining requires.

The imperfect is our paradise.

The sweetest of all sounds is praise.

“He is not a bad fellow, though an absolute imbecile in his profession. He has one positive virtue. He is as brave as a bulldog and as tenacious as a lobster if he gets his claws upon anyone.”

“Hard words are very rarely useful. Real firmness is good for every thing. Strut is good for nothing.”

“No arguments will give courage to the coward.”

“In a word if you tell me you have a personality problem I am not certain until I know you better whether to say "Good!" or "I'm sorry." It depends on the reasons. And these, it seems, may be good reasons, or they may be good reasons.”

“There's a rainbow around every corner is a well known saying and is supposed to make negative people positive.”

My path is exactly where I want it to be. I'm doing my thing. I'm getting better with every album.

Every day I wake up and I lay in bed counting my blessings and saying my prayers for how fortunate I am to have great fans and health and family.

I want my music to jump off the stage and out of the speakers. When we do 'Rain Is A Good Thing' paired back to back with 'Country Girl,' it just feels like the roof is fixin' to come off the place.

I've always enjoyed things going at a nice pace, nothing too fast, nothing too crazy.
