I don't remember Moses writing, 'Thou shalt not kill.. unless you think you have a good reason.

If you've made your own hell, then only you have the power to escape it.

Be here. Be present. Wherever you are, be there.

As adults we try to relax from the never-ending quest for reason and order by drinking a little whiskey or smoking whatever works for us, but the wisdom isn't in the whiskey or the smoke. The wisdom is in the moments when the madness slips away and we remember the basics.

A lot of people make money off of fear and negativity and any way they can feed it to you is to their benefit in a lot of ways.

And look around you and see what needs to be changed.

There's a great enthusiasm for good country music all over the world.

The whole house came up and I came up with it... I was just praying to the Lord to take care of me.

Since I was a kid, music was what I wanted to do. I thought I could make it by my own talents. That's what I wanted to prove.

What goes around, comes around.

I don't think any person has any special knowledge about what God has planned for me and you any more than me and you do.

There is only one map to the journey of life and it lives within your heart
