“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.”

“Once in a while I get inspired and finish my act with the hillbilly hoedown.”

“I wasn't for Vietnam. When I told that to the hippie newspaper, all my people got nervous.”

“I'd love to travel to the Holy Land.”

“I try to visit people in hospitals when I can, smiling and joking while I'm there. But when I leave, I just start crying.”

“We still lend our old house out to relatives. They keep a guest book for my fans to sign.”

“There's more women stars in Nashville all the time. They're proving they can do the job the same as a man.”

“You ain't supposed to get salmon when they're swimming upstream to spawn. But if you're hungry, you do.”

“I know there's some kind of history to mountain music-like it came from Ireland or England or Scotland and we kept up the tradition.”
