“The music business doesn’t take up that much of my time.”

You think about people like Hank Williams, who stood on that spot of wood, and Mr. Acuff, and, of course, George Jones.

If you can last until you’re 40 years old, hopefully you’ll be mature enough to figure out the rest of the years.

To think about the historical part of the Opry and how it’s played such a part in country music.

I’ve always wanted to make a bluegrass album.

I mean, my voice has gotten a little deeper sounding as I’ve gotten older, I think. I noticed that.

Did you shout out in anger, in fear of your neighbor or did you just sit down and cry?..

I’ve been a lot of places, and my wife, Denise, she likes a lot of the fancy restaurants.

I dont drive around London much.

My wife says I’m much happier when I’m not a regular on a TV show.

I think American actors are much more intimidated by Shakespeare. I actually want to do this Shakespeare play in New York, but I think it’s interesting that there’s this gaping hole in the repertoire in the American theater, which is Shakespeare.

It’s much easier to follow something that’s not been as successful as this.
