I've been around a long time, and life still has a whole lot of surprises for me.
I loved being outside. We'd hold lightning bugs in our fingers and pretend they were diamond rings.
I think Charley Pride has been one of the best things to happen to country music, to prove it belongs to everybody.
Nobody's perfect. The only one that ever was, was crucified.
We used to go around tipping outhouses over, or turning over corn shocks on Halloween. Anything to be mean.
I'm trying to lead a good Christian life, so there ain't too much spicy to tell about me.
Back then, we didn't know we were poor, and people were more proud then.
When all those city folks try to fix up my talking, all they do is mess me up.
Because Olivia Newton-John wasn't from Nashville, they didn't like her winning our awards. I've got no complaints.
Do the best you can with yourself and hope for the best.
I believe in horoscopes. I was born under the sign of the Ram, which means I'm headstrong, don't like people telling me what to do.
I'd love to travel to the Holy Land.
I didn't know how babies were made until I was pregnant with my fourth child.
I want more out of life than I've gotten.
I wasn't for Vietnam. When I told that to the hippie newspaper, all my people got nervous.
You get used to sadness, growing up in the mountains, I guess.
I was the first woman ever named Entertainer of the Year in country music.
I've seen every highway in the United States, and they all look alike to me.
In the long run, you make your own luck - good, bad, or indifferent.
I refuse to be pushed around anymore.
