Sheryl Crow quotes about
The only person who can save you is you: That going to be the thing that informed the rest of my life.
I feel like I am beginning to be a part of a musical community, but I wouldn't say I'm a country artist because I wouldn't want to invalidate anybody else or to even begin to be so preposterous as to think I can just skate into town and get some fans.
I was turned down by every record label in L.A. Perseverance is three quarters of the game. Talent's only a quarter. Being able to withstand the word 'no' over and over can build you a pretty tough skin. I knew if I just kept at it, at the very least I'd get better at my craft.
Let's face it, life is a constant challenge. It's full of unexpected detours that no one but you can navigate.
Where I fit in is confusing to me.
Making miracles is hard work, most people give up before they happen.
When you tune your guitar in a different way, it lends itself to a new way of looking at your songwriting.
More than 10 million Americans are living with cancer, and they demonstrate the ever-increasing possibility of living beyond cancer.
I have a face I cannot show, I make the rules up as I go.
I'm singing the way that I love to sing, which is like old soul, like old Al Green. I grew up about an hour from Memphis. So all that music that I grew up with - the Stax music and early rhythm 'n' blues - I'm doing that. I'm actually getting out from behind my guitar and I'm singing.
One of the things that I wound up loving about being involved with a bike racer was learning how to bike and how that really creates solitary time for you to reflect on things and nobody can get a hold of you.
Doing yoga on the road was really a life-saver, and a life-changer….It kept me focused and gave me more control over the way I divided my energy. I realize that if [a place of goodness] is the basis for all decision-making, then the road is clear.
I used to jog every day and call it my 'gratitude run.' I'd make my gratitude list as I ran. I never ran out of things to be grateful for. My knees aren't what they used to be, but I still do my gratitude list every day.
My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away.
