Surround yourself with positive people and you'll be a positive person.Collection: Positive
When we went to Iraq, we stayed in one of Saddam's palaces. It was kind of creepy. If those walls could talk, there's no telling what stories they'd tell.
Cancer does not discriminate.
My grandfather is a retired Marine, and I've always had a great deal of respect for anyone who serves our country.
The more you perform and get out there, I guess the more practice you have at it and the better you are and the more comfortable you are on stage.
You should never doubt yourself because you never, ever know what's around the corner.
I don't talk to myself or anything, but sometimes I say things and I laugh at myself. Sometimes you have to make fun of yourself.
There's one place that I've always known I wanted to be, and that is on country radio.
I was tossed all over the place growing up, which I guess prepared me for the music business, but the one thing that has always been there, that has never ever left me, has been country music.
The thing is, my life is a country song. I don't need to be manufactured, and I don't need anyone to tell me what to say or what to sing.
'Things that Never Cross a Man's Mind' is probably one of my favorite upbeat tempo songs because it is just a sassy song, and it's a fun song.
I collaborated with fellow cat lover and designer Geren Ford to create a sweater that we hope any cat parent would wear to show their kitty pride and that all animal lovers can wear in support of the ASPCA.
The USO tours I've been part of have definitely been the highlight of my career and my life.

I have fake eye lashes on and they feel like tarantulas. But they're not real tarantulas.Collection: Real
My mother left me when I was 2 years old which is devestating to a child.Collection: Mother
I was 19 when I first auditioned for 'American Idol.' I'd never been on an airplane; I'd never been outside of my hometown, except to go to Myrtle Beach. I'm 22 now. I'm learning a lot about life, and it's all in front of the cameras.Collection: Beach
One night I couldn't sleep and I was up and just Googling random stuff and I'm like, 'Hmmm, PETA.' I saw all the videos and I just thought it was horrible, Pickler told People. It's animal cruelty. A lot of it has to do with knowing what happens to the animals and it really bothered me and so I will not eat meat.Collection: Sleep
Dolly is a legend. Jessica is so beautiful. I take it as a big compliment when people put me beside them. About being compared to Dolly Parton & Jessica Simpson on the Idol red carpet.Collection: Beautiful
I thought Europe was a country?Collection: Hilarious
A country girl can talk her way out of a ticket.Collection: Girl
As usual, my mind is spinning in circles...is it me? Am I making mountains out of molehills? Being too analytical? Worrying about nothing? Being emotional?Collection: Emotional
For me, it's not about the awards. I don't define success by how many awards you have or how much money you have. To me, success is if I'm happy. If you have $20 million in the bank and you're not happy, you're not successful to me - that's my opinion.Collection: Successful
It's such an honor. I still get, I guess, starstruck, at the Opry. Because there's so much history here and there are so many legends that are still walking around backstage, so it's really an incredible, incredible experience for somebody like me that grew up listening to all of them. And to be able to share the stage with them is something that I treasure.Collection: Honor
I've seen my whole family struggle, with money, with relationships, with alcohol, and I thought there must be a better way. As you mature, you realize you don`t choose your parents. It`s not your fault what they do and you should not be ashamed.Collection: Struggle
I'm so lazy. I'm on the road all the time working, so when I'm at home, my perfect date is just laying on the couch!Collection: Home
Things that Never Cross a Mans Mind is probably one of my favorite upbeat tempo songs because it is just a sassy song, and its a fun song.Collection: Song
Everybody likes their coffee different.Collection: Coffee
In all honesty, I'm not really familiar with Stevie Wonder's music, since country is more of my style. I really have no idea what I am doing.Collection: Country
