Garth Brooks

You aren't wealthy until you have something money can't buy.

My hardest thing was to let go, to be happy for everybody and just to enjoy. And go back to being what you were before you became an artist, and that was just a fan.

One of the greatest gifts we have is our own mistakes and somebody singing about them.

When I went to see Kansas and Queen and Styx, I don't even remember the music. But I know what I saw.

People said, 'How could you walk away from music?' But being a dad - there's nothing that can touch that.

There's a difference between knowing what's on the page in a history book and actually feeling that page have curves and valleys.

As a kid, before I could play music, I remember baseball being the one thing that could always make me happy.

What I love about 'Midnight Train' is that it's a song about a journey, but the music actually takes you on that journey. It feels like you're moving through the whole song.

I'd love to play a villain in a movie, the kind of bad guy you would never think of me being able to play. Like most people, I have a darker side I'd like to explore onscreen.

The hardest part about this business is accepting the back end with the same love that you accepted the front end.

I got an offer in 1992 to buy a major-league team. I turned down the offer because I don't want my love of the game to involve business.

I just love to see people having a good time.
