Plastic surgeons are always making mountains out of molehills.

A lot of people don't realise I came out of the Smoky Mountains with a load of songs.

All my momma's people were very musical. My grandpa, who was the Pentecostal minister, he was a great musician. He played the fiddle, he played the piano.

People are always asking me in interviews, 'What do you think of foreign affairs?' I just say, 'I've had a few.'

You know, I look like a woman but I think like a man. And in this world of business, that has helped me a lot. Because by the time they think that I don't know what's goin' on, I then got the money, and gone.

I was born with a happy heart, and I try to keep a good attitude. It's not true that I'm happy all the time because nobody is, and we all go through our things.
