To me it's a two-way street. They're good to me, and I'm good to them. It's a natural thing for me to love people, and I think people sense it. ... I am secure with the kind of person I am. I don't feel like I'm better than anyone, but I'm just as good as anyone.
What people do behind closed doors is certainly not my concern unless I'm there with them.
A lot of people don't realise I came out of the Smoky Mountains with a load of songs.
[On being overweight:] If I tried to haul ass, I would have to make two trips.
I feel that sin and evil are the negative part of you, and I think it's like a battery: you've got to have the negative and the positive in order to be a complete person.

Now I usually try not to give advice. Information, yes, advice, no. But, what has worked for me may not work for you. Well, take for instance what has worked for me. Wigs. Tight clothes. Push-up bras.
If I should stay I would only be in your way So I'll go, but I know I'll think of you each step of the way And I will always love you I will always love you Bitter sweet Memories That's all I am taking with me Good-bye. Please don't cry We both know that I'm not What you need But I will always love you I will always love you.
You can be rich in spirit, kindness, love and all those things that you can't put a dollar sign on.
I don't trust anyone who does their own hair. I don't think it's natural.
I can't tell anybody else how to run their life or their business, but I really believe I've got a good bead on myself.
Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing.
Love is only as strong as your weakest moment.
We could afford the price of peace. Love is all it costs.
