Other quotes by Alan:
"I'm just a singer of simple songs, and that's the truth."
I hate the star part of the business. I like the singing, and writing and all that goes with it. But I wish when I get off the (tour) bus I could be more normal and go down to Kmart and buy me a fishing lure.
-- Alan Jackson, 1996
I tell people now when they ask me, I say,
"I like collaborating, because if I didn't, I'd probably never finish a song"
"Ten years ago I was driving a forklift at the Kmart warehouse and nobody was screaming at me then.
"You need to keep your perspective. You have to remember where you came from."
"I don't think I've changed all that much from a kid who grew up in a small town."
"To me, songwriting is the backbone of Nashville. Looks can go, fads can go, but a good song lasts forever."
"That's the way I like it: people who still know who they are."
"When my girls do something very small, it means something big to me.
"Probably a hit song about a marlin!"
"Do what's in your heart and don't let people change you. Do what you want to do."
I guess it's the magic of show business."
Just watching them accomplish things from the time they're infants in wonderful."
--- Alan Jackson when asked if he'd prefer writing a hit song or
having a marlin on the end of his fishing line.
