I have always been intrigued with singing and I actually started my career in musical comedies.

I now have great color sprinkled throughout my herd.

You can take the girl out of Texas but not the Texas out of the girl and ultimately not the girl out of Texas.

The ranch was raw land when I bought it and, for better or worse, I have designed every aspect of it from the corrals, the arena, to the barn, to the house.

I have always written poetry but I have never applied it to songwriting.

My desire is to stand up and brush myself off when I make mistakes and ask for forgiveness.

Longhorns are unique - each and every one of them is a different color with a different design.

I love to ride horses, hike in the woods with Juliette and appraise Longhorns.

Acting manifested as the primary focus over the years but now I am stirring the pot once again with my voice.

I wrote my children's book because I believe there are children that are hurting and may need to know that there is love out there for them- God's love.

I have learned how to plant coastal hay, fertilize and bale it.

My desire is to let go of my ego and let in His direction.

I, also, found the opportunity to work with the actors extremely gratifying and rewarding.

I'm the type who'd be happy not going anywhere as long as I was sure I knew exactly what was happening at the places I wasn't going to. I'm the type who'd like to sit home and watch every party that I'm invited to on a monitor in my bedroom.

Natalie from the Dixie Chicks could have said what she said before 9-11 and no one would have cared.

Liberalism seems to be related to the distance people are from the problem.

The poorer is a family, the greater is the proportion of the total outgo which must be used for food... The proportion of the outgo used for food, other things being equal, is the best measure of the material standard of living of a population.

Too many would-be executives are slaves of routine.

You just want to keep playing consistently now and keep working hard and I'm sure the goals will come.

True contemplation is not a psychological trick but a theological grace. It can come to us only as a gift and not as a result of our own clever use of spiritual techniques.

Everyone from Pullman porters to hostesses at swank New York parties will tell me they always watch 'Miss Brooks' on Friday night.

To drive an F1 car you have to be a little mad. On the morning of a race there's a mix of excitement and fear. If it's a wet track, then it's worse as you're not in control most of the time, which is the thing all drivers fear the most.

What I'm looking for is not out there, it is in me.

I found out through the Internet that I have AIDS. I learned that I was dead. Where else would I find these things?

Backstage, I get sleepy, and want to curl up and snooze. I never get nervous, whatever the event. I feel quite detached until I walk on stage, and then some gear inside me clicks and off I go like a wind up doll.
