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.

Nobody's perfect. The only one that ever was, was crucified.

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.

Daddy was real gentle with kids. That's why I expected so much out of marriage, figuring that all men should be steady and pleasant.

My life has run from misery to happiness.

We used to go around tipping outhouses over, or turning over corn shocks on Halloween. Anything to be mean.

I'm not a big fan of Women's Liberation, but maybe it will help women stand up for the respect they're due.

I didn't know how babies were made until I was pregnant with my fourth child.

When I'd tell people I like country music they'd get this look on their faces. People were kind of ashamed of country.

In the long run, you make your own luck - good, bad, or indifferent.
