I love to get books, because I love to read.
-
That's the hardest thing about being a mom. You want to be cool, and you want them to like you all the time, but you can't always have that. You're gonna have times where you have to say no, and you won't be the most popular person in the house.
-
I love to read about healthy eating and preach to my husband, who doesn't listen. Now I'm trying to teach it to my daughters.
-
I have been fighting writing songs for a long time. People keep telling me I should write, and other writers have offered to write with me, and to be honest, it's not something I've ever really had a passion for - plus I wasn't sure I had the talent to do it!
-
The way you look is so dependent on the way you take care of yourself.
-
I always thought it would have been fun to spend an evening with Patsy Cline - just because I think she was really fun and interesting. I think you'd have a really good time with her.
-
A big part of who I am is just the way I was raised. Nobody is better than anyone else, and if you really work hard, you might get lucky and get what you want.
-
Honestly, I just have to do what's right for me, and what I would tell people is what I believe, which is that tolerance is very important.
-
Some days I do well and I eat really healthfully. But I don't think we should deprive ourselves of anything, so some days I indulge and give in to cravings.
-
I think we should all be tolerant of each other and embrace each others' strengths and differences and uniqueness and beauty.
-
Why do we get so angry at ourselves when we eat foods we love? Do you think guys walk around going, 'I just ate a cheeseburger and I'm so mad at myself?'
-
I wish I could do an entire spa day.
-
It's hard to say no to your kid. It's hard for them to stomp off and not be happy with you for an hour.
-
I don't really have any kind of rigorous or definite routine before I go onstage. I like to eat at least an hour or two before I go on. If I can't do that, I just wait until after. I try and drink lots of water before I go onstage.
-
It's hard being away from home. But other than that, performing is the highlight of my day.
-
I have girls who are concerned about how they look compared to models or what have you. It's my responsibility to teach them that beauty is more than superficial.
-
I feel like it's important to use this gift God gave me, my life and my career to do something to make the world a better place. It's an easy thing for me to do.
-
I have a really amazing fan club, it's contemporary but it's a little bit old school. There's a lot of connection. I have a fan club president who really responds to people.
-
In any small town, sports are really important to the high school, and I wasn't very good at sports.
-
I do yoga, lunges, crunches, things like that for 40 minutes twice a week. For cardio I usually do the elliptical, treadmill or walking.
-
It means so much being a part of country music and the Opry.
-
It's always nice to be thought of.
-
I really just tried to make a record full of great songs, which is the goal I always have.
-
I definitely feel a difference about my place in the industry. I feel like I have some longevity now.
