I always just thought if you see somebody without a smile, give'em yours!
You can't really make people be any different than what they are.
Find out who you are and do it on purpose.
The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain.
Mine is only one of the millions of hearts broken over the death of Whitney Houston. I will always be grateful and in awe of the wonderful performance she did on my song and I can truly say from the bottom of my heart, 'Whitney, I will always love you. You will be missed.'
I think there is a little magic in the fact that I'm so totally real but look so artificial at the same time.
I don't like to give advice. I like to give people information because everyone's life is different, and everyone's journey is different.
When I was a little girl, I always dreamed of being a star. I didn't really know what all that meant. I didn't know.
'Jolene' has been very popular all of these years, even overseas.
I walk tall; I got a tall attitude.
I have suffered most of the things I write about - or my friends have.
I had to get rich so I could sing like I was poor again.

People don't realize that we, we meaning people in show business, have the same problems as everyone else. Money doesn't change that. Fame doesn't change that. Sometimes that brings on more problems. You know, it's just a different kind of problems.
