Reconciliation requires changes of heart and spirit as well as social and economic change. It requires symbolic as well as practical action.

I have accepted fear as a part of life - specifically the fear of change... I have gone ahead despite the pounding in the heart that says: turn back.

I can be almost terminally grief-stricken because things are so dire but at the same time there's a real lightheartedness about just the recoverability of life of how things change how they're not the same ever again.

A sense of blessedness comes from a change of heart not from more blessings.

A heart well prepared for adversity in bad times hopes and in good times fears for a change in fortune.

The whole course of human history may depend on a change of heart in one solitary and even humble individual - for it is in the solitary mind and soul of the individual that the battle between good and evil is waged and ultimately won or lost.

The spirit of democracy is not a mechanical thing to be adjusted by abolition of forms. It requires change of heart.

You change your life by changing your heart.

My first car was a 1976 Toyota Corolla Liftback in red like the one in 'The Blues Brothers.' I painted a Union Jack on the roof. I was absolutely in love with it until I destroyed it which broke my heart!

I could be on 52nd and Third in Manhattan up and ask a strange for directions and they will help you that's a rural heart. Your car breaks down in the middle of Iowa or somewhere or Tennessee where I'm from people want to help each other. Given each opportunity you see how people come together.

I love Lady Antebellum and Miranda Lambert - they write from the heart. But it's hard to find a country music lover in L.A. None of my friends really listen to it and they hate getting in the car with me because I just blast Taylor Swift.

I took guitar a while back and my heart wasn't in it at the time but I'm ready to try it again. I sing in the car at home - it's a huge part of my life especially since I'm from Tennessee.

You have to have your heart in the business and the business in your heart.

I'm an introvert at heart... And show business - even though I've loved it so much - has always been hard for me.

What I learned is that in business you must make decisions based on facts not react with your heart.

The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters - not to talk in armies and nations and numbers - but to track it home.

No there is literally nothing on the business side that I wouldn't sacrifice in a heartbeat to have an extra couple of hours' writing. Nothing.
