Love is the greatest healer to be found.

I think Ray Charles did as much as anybody when he did his country music album. Ray Charles broke down borders and showed the similarities between country music and R and B.

Love is like a dying ember, only memories remain.

I think it is just terrible and disgusting how everyone has treated Lance Armstrong, especially after what he achieved, winning seven Tour de France races while on drugs. When I was on drugs, I couldn't even find my bike.

I'm not prejudiced in any way that I can think of. That's just not the guy I am.

When songs fall from the sky, all I can do is catch them before they hit the ground.

I don't think any person has any special knowledge about what God has planned for me and you any more than me and you do.

I think I'm basically the same guy I always was. Maybe I've learned, through experience, to rein in some of the anger and temper they say redheads normally have.

We create our own unhappiness. The purpose of suffering is to help us understand we are the ones who cause it.

When you put your life in a good place, good things follow.

You could make any song sound creepy if you wanted. It's all about the inflection.

Three chords and the truth -- that's what a country song is.

What goes around, comes around.

I text and email my friends and family a lot, but that's about the extent of my high-tech-etude.

If you start out looking at somebody, wondering whether he's good or bad, I think you're starting out in the wrong direction. I think we're all good and we're all bad.

But if you think of all the people who don't like me, just think of all the millions who've never heard of me!

There are only so many notes so there must be only so many melodies.

I believe that all roads lead to the same place -- and that is wherever all roads lead to.

I like to play small clubs.

Nothing lasts forever, but old Fords and a natural stone.
