All you need to do to be my friend is like me.
I think every girl's dream is to find a bad boy at the right time, when he wants to not be bad anymore.
I know that a Christmas tree farm in Pennsylvania is about the most random place for a country singer to come from, but I had an awesome childhood.
Vanity can apply to both insecurity and egotism.
When I'm 40 and nobody wants to see me in a sparkly dress anymore, I'll be like: 'Cool, I'll just go in the studio and write songs for kids.'

Country radio is much more like a family than any other group of people that I've met.
I'd like to think you don't stop being creative once you get happy.
One of my big fears is people saying my songs are all starting to sound the same.

And I think that my favorite writers definitely have something musical about what they do, in saying something so relatable and universal and so simple.
I've been careful in love. I've been careless in love. And I've had adventures I wouldn't trade for anything.
In this business you have to develop a thick skin, but I'm always going to feel everything. It's my nature.
If you're yelling you're the one who's lost control of the conversation.
At some point, you grow out of being attracted to that flame that burns you over and over and over again.
