- I've always felt that if you've been blessed, you should try to help as many people as you can. I just think that's the right thing to do.
- I'm so sick of gay this, gay that. I could care less. It ain't affecting my life at all.
- I'm saying, Come on, the global warming thing? How did the ice melt during the ice ages? Was the dinosaurs driving SUVs around back then?
- I'm not a party guy, and I'm not a Hollywood guy, either.
- Every July, I look forward to taping a Christmas show - in July in Nashville. In 98-degree weather. I love it.
