I remember being really young and having this voice inside that told me to trust my gut. And my gut has been really, really strong in my life. It's pretty vocal and it leads me.
Time is one of my most valuable assets.
If the wolf had ever come to our back door, he'd have had to bring a picnic lunch.
The Grand Ole Opry, to a country singer, is what Yankee Stadium is to a baseball player. Broadway to an actor. It's the top of the ladder, the top of the mountain. You don't just play the Opry; you live it.
Long before I was a star, I was a fan.
Just get out your magic pencil and erase the cloudy skies, and just draw a picture of me saying, I apologize.

There is too much ideological conformity in gender studies. The true-believers fashion the theories, write the textbooks and teach the students. When journalists, policymakers, and legislators address topics such as the wage gap, gender and education, or women's health, they turn to these experts for enlightenment. For the most part, they peddle misinformation, victim politics, and sophistry. They claim that their teachings represent the academic consensus, but that is only because they have excluded all dissenters.
Fear Allah, for He alone lives; all other things are liable to perish.
Write relentlessly, until you find your voice. Then, use it.
