“Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always been a real deep thinker and stuff.”

A lot of people think Christianity is about always being perfect. It’s actually the opposite of that. It’s realizing that we’re all humans, and that’s why God sent his Son to this earth – to save people.

But dreams move on, if you wait too long.

I don’t think there’s any accidents in my life.

I went through a struggle, and I really needed to get myself together and connect with my purpose, which is music.

Keep the faculty of effort alive in you by a little gratuitous exercise every day.

The people at the record company had asked me if I could write a song about my life, my relationship with God, and where I’m from.

Well, I can’t write a song on purpose, my songs come in a moment of inspiration or desperation.

This table’s a bit like life. It’s a circle. And I believe everything in life is a circle. You come into this world a little teeny wrinkled-up fetus

I always prayed that God would give me the wisdom and the vision to do the things on this earth that I was supposed to do to express His life and love and His will.

I’m so miserable without you, it’s almost as if you’re here!

There has always been a battle between good and evil.

Don’t tell my heart, my achy breaky heart, I just don’t think it’d understand.

My kids learned to color on this table. There’s been a lot that’s went around this table. Waylon Jennings sat right there in that chair and showed Miley the chords to ‘Good Hearted Woman.’ Sitting in that chair.

Miley would never have been Hannah Montana.

Therapy is like telling your nightmares when you’re a kid; they lose their power to hurt and control.

Look – every time is the wrong time and the perfect time to have a kid, and you just do it when you can.

You don’t have to know anything about baseball to respond to Babe Ruth because he’s just this magnificent human being.

That was the hard part of having kids: trying to be on their schedule, then fighting to get to sleep while they are sleeping.

By doing that and being very competitive, the grown-ups started telling me even back before I started playing organized ball that I was too physical and too advanced for the kids my own age.

Everyone says how Calvin and Hobbes is about a real kid, to me there’s nothing real about it; it’s an adult using a kid’s body as a mouthpiece.

My kids, they’re always embarrassed when my voice shows up in something.
