Wildflowers don't care where they grow.

It's a good thing I was born a girl, otherwise I'd be a drag queen.

My songs are like my children -- I expect them to support me when I'm old.

I was born with a happy heart, and I try to keep a good attitude. It's not true that I'm happy all the time because nobody is, and we all go through our things.

I met my husband before I became a star, and he doesn't care about any of it.

With the first money I ever made I bought my Mommy and Daddy a car, and helped them fix their house up.

When people say to me less is more I reply, 'More is more'.

I always think of myself as a working girl.

Of course, 'I Will Always Love You' is the biggest song so far in my career. I'm famous for several, but that one has been recorded by more people and made me more money, I think, than all of them. But that song did come from a true and deep place in my heart.

There's nothing like white trash at the White House.

I've used my femininity and my sexuality as a weapon and a tool... but that's just natural.

I don't think I'm supposed to boss other people around just because I'm a so-called celebrity or star. I hate that when people act that way. No one deserves it. I've seen it happen. I don't call those people out -- they know who they are. Some enjoy that reputation.

Is forever longer than always?

All of my brothers and sisters are very talented. They all sang all right.

Sometimes I like to run naked in the moonlight and the wind, on a little trail behind our house, when the honeysuckle blooms. It's a feeling of freedom, so close to God and nature.

I can write a song in about an hour if it's a simple country song.

No one could have been nicer, classier nor better looking than Dick Clark. I've had a crush on him since I was a teenager.

And she's a sparrow when she's broken But she's an eagle when she flies.

I've... been accused of being involved with every man I'm ever seen with or worked with. Maybe I have, maybe I ain't. I never tell if I have.

I wear make-up, and it gets a little bit thicker every year.
