“I think if you’re everyone’s cup of tea, that probably means you’re a little bit boring, or you’re not pushing yourself.”

Forced idleness evolves into beauty.

Fame freaks me out. Do you just wake up different? I don’t know how to scale it back if it gets too crazy.

In the beginning, I wrote OK songs, but they didn’t have a unique perspective.

I’d rather be more of the hippie country chick – as in, instead of pointing a finger, just maybe saying, ‘We’re all screw-ups. We’re all in this kind of together. We’re all just figuring this out.’

A lot of what gets on the radio isn’t saying anything other than somebody wants to be famous and will do whatever they’re told to get it.

Anyone singing about trucks, in any form, in any song, anywhere, literally just stop – nobody cares!

I’m really proud to be a woman representing country music.

A lot of times, Im singing things that are observational and am definitely including myself.

When something comes to my brain, I don’t ignore it. You never know what it’s going to turn into.

All I have in this world is a place that’s mine, a few good friends and a few good lines, a couple pairs of shoes that I love that shine and I walk in peace.

When you see me out I hope the taste in your mouth is still sweet as I wish it could be, believe me.

Get in loser, we’re having a nervous breakdown.

It’s weird, because the ideas in my songs aren’t controversial to me. I feel like I should be able to sing about anything.

Obviously, I dont live and die by it, everything my horoscope says. But I feel like theres definitely something to it.

If you wanna find the honey, You can’t be scared of the bees.

We knew what was under the surface and lived like it wouldn’t hurt us. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘩𝘶𝘳𝘵 𝘶𝘴.

I was thinking too fast. It seems like a person has the tendency to get bored, because he always wants to try to do all these accomplishments.

The great advantage of being a writer is that you can spy on people. You’re there, listening to every word, but part of you is observing. Everything is useful to a writer, you see – every scrap, even the longest and most boring of luncheon parties.

Punctuality is the virtue of the bored.

The sun shone, having no alternative, on the nothing new.

The intelligent man is never bored.

Boredom provides a stronger inclination to write than anything.

Forced idleness evolves into beauty.

If you get bored with the person you married for love, there’s something wrong with you – not with that person.
