It's no secret that I love to talk, but the real secret is I love to listen, too.

I sang with Anita Bryant in the Southern Baptist churches.

I hate politics, hate deals, and deal-making, hate meeting with attorneys and agents.

There was no way we'd ever get spoiled. Daddy made sure to instill in us a work ethic.

I change my hairstyle every day for the show, I'm fastidious and vain about my nails and teeth and grooming and makeup, but a perfect body, forget it. Dust to dust, wuggies to wuggies.

We heard stories about fakery and decoys at revivals. I never personally saw any trickery.

Sexual harassment is complex, subtle, and highly subjective.

I was told all my life I was part Cherokee. Then it was Crow. The latest is Blackfoot.

What most people perceive as energy is really strength of spirit. It comes from the joy of knowing God, loving Him, and being loved by Him.

A fear of the unknown keeps a lot of people from leaving bad situations.

God didn't bless me with success so I could eat caviar every day.

Maybe love at first sight isn’t what we think it is. Maybe it’s recognising a soul we loved in a past life and falling in love with them again.

Everything's uglier up close.Not you.

My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.

It smelled like aging wood and creosote, plastic book covers, and old paper. Old paper, which my mom used to say was the smell of time itself.

In science, a path that turns out to be a dead end is very useful because you don't devote resources to focusing on that; you go elsewheres.

Being afraid of having an endoscopy (if you're a man) and giving birth (if you're a woman).

If there is a conflict in your mind between what you know and what you are seeing, paint what you see because if you don't, the result will look like something that isn't there.

Worry drains the mind of its power and, sooner or later, it injures the soul

My real pleasure is that 4 times a week 1,800 people are standing up and shouting on Broadway for an author who died hundreds of years ago.
