I often get myself in love trouble because I’m so passionate; I love so much and so deep.

I prefer my music. I’m more of a one-nighter kind of person than to do a squat-down job for three months or whatever.

I sing as an actress. Whatever I’m singing about, I just become the story.

I still believe in Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy and true love. Don’t even try to tell me different.

I still close my eyes and go home – I can always draw from that.

I think 9/11 affected everybody in one way or another.

I think country music is popular – has been popular and will always be popular because I think a lot of real people singing about a lot of real stuff about real people. And it’s simple enough for people to understand it. And we kind of roll with the punches.

I think every entertainer’s had nights when things go wrong. I mean you can’t remember everything all the time, and especially if you’re having hard times personally, things going on that you – you know, and then people make it worse. And that makes you feel worse.

I think I became more productive through not having children. I never really had the desire to have them. My husband didn’t want them either, so it worked out well.

I think so many people live their whole life in fear and doubt and shame.
