My dad has been married to his wife for 15 years and wherever he goes there better be a seat for her.

We have to stop looking at Hollywood couples because you're going to get disappointed.

Martina McBride

I never saw my dad cry. My son saw me cry. My dad never told me he loved me, and consequently I told Scott I loved him every other minute. The point is, I'll make less mistakes than my dad, my sons hopefully will make less mistakes than me, and their sons will make less mistakes than their dads.

I was too young to remember this, but my dad says that I was running up onstage before they even asked us.
