I work a lot, and not just in Las Vegas.

When the audience leaves, I'd like them to feel positive when they go.

And I think that we're more of an alternative act in that sense, and that flavor comes across to the audience.

Our show doesn't rely on the typical whistles and bells, and smoke and mirrors. It relies mostly on the music.

I'm just thrilled to see people enjoying the music.

And looking at today's music scene, I think it's cool that there are a lot of consumers and fans not limited by what radio and the record companies tell them to buy.

But these days, I get a lot more attention and airplay from the Adult Contemporary and country radio stations, and I feel comfortable saying I'm a part of that.

I've always enjoyed playing live onstage.

There's also, I think more so in the music business and especially for women, this ceiling that people put on you if you have children or a family and decide to spend time with them.

I've had the big ups and the big downs.

I've been lucky. I've had this history of having an appeal to more than one type of audience.

I'll do a cappella stuff, rock 'n' roll and swing stuff.

I like the big ups. I'm into the big ups.

I can't live off of yesterday - that's in the past.

Songs like the Buck Owens tune, for example, are very simple and straightforward, and recording it really gave me a chance to get into and get a sense of Buck's personality, a feel for that whole Bakersfield sound.

This genre of music seems to want to push people into a certain time slot, which is unfortunate.

The very fact that I've had those established me to continue on to do new music and new projects.

In between that time, I've done book narrating, you know, books on tape for Dove Audio.

I'm really fortunate that I've had some mega hits.

As you know, the business is cyclic with styles. It's no different from clothing styles.

My biggest successes were mainly in the pop market during the 80s.

I work a lot, and not just in Las Vegas.

It would be nice to garner new fans and make it a success - and success is relevant, we already know all that.

I'm not a toy boy, bellybutton band, so I don't have to worry about that. Actually, I never did.

I never stopped working, but I did let my contract run out. And I didn't really actively pursue it.

Ride Em Cowboy dont let them throw ya down.. You cant make no money if ya hit the ground Ride Em Cowboy dont let them throw ya down Youre the toughest Cowboy in town.

I did work out every day. I needed it to have the endurance to do what needed to be done and not get hurt. I have such a new respect for action stars now.

Work is the meat of life, pleasure the dessert.

This is God's work. Therefore it must be triumphant. There is no place for misgiving or despondency.

Yeah, that's what kind of, we get the idea a little bit yeah, because other people from different countries also try as hard as they can to get a medal or a gold medal in the Olympic Games. And you know, if they can work hard, we can work hard as well.

The work which is manipulated looks a little boring to me. I think life is pretty strange anyway. It is wooo, wooo, wooo!

I am not stopped by low funds, physical exhaustion, mental exhaustion, or temptations to stop and work on some other production that would be more financially rewarding.

The artist need not know very much; best of all let him work instinctively and paint as naturally as he breathes or walks.

Corporate partners help UNICEF fund our programmes for children, advocate with us on their behalf, or facilitate our work through logistical, technical, research or supply support.

The productivity of work is not the responsibility of the worker but of the manager.

The kinds of shows that seem to work now, the comedy shows, are those which require very little attention. They're superficial and I like articulate comedy.

The work that we do during the winter is very important; we have a new bike and it's important to develop it during this time, and we start with this test.

What an artist learns matters little. What he himself discovers has a real worth for him, and gives him the necessary incitement to work.

I work to stay alive.

When it is time to get to work, I go away completely and don't do anything except the work. And that can be 16 hours a day.

Some people don't like competition because it makes them work harder, better.

Concentrate all your thoughts upon the work at hand. The sun's rays do not burn until brought to a focus.

Always, your work is the same: You have to tell a story, you have to make a character. It doesn't matter if there are thousands of dollars, millions behind it, or if there is nothing.

Style is as much under the words as in the words. It is as much the soul as it is the flesh of a work.

Yes, and I can sit down on a white piece of paper and work because I don't believe too much into inspiration, only I'm waiting for inspiration, work and then inspiration may come. It's a little too easy to say that.

I am always successful in my work.

Then I decided I couldn't just crawl in the corner and die, so I started putting pen to paper and wrote some songs. I had no idea what for or who I was going to work with. I tried to find my way and direction.

Much of my work has come from being lazy.

People are not perfect... very often the relationships that are strongest are those where people have worked through big crises, but they've had to work through them. So the challenge to us is to work through that.
