“You have to be real sharp when you're touring. I'm dull normal at home...” — Anne Murray Quote

“You have to be real sharp when you're touring. I'm dull normal at home. So when I come off the road, my kids have to put up with Mom making cracks every five minutes for a couple of days.”

“It was nice to be home for a change. Nice to be with my husband. Nice to be with the kids. But it's also nice to be touring again.”

“I didn't have a life. Basically, for 40 years it was my work and my nose was to the grindstone the whole time.”

“I don't like the idea of fighting for 25 minutes. Let's just be real here: It's like, you hear Derrick Lewis talking about it all the time. It's not his idea of a fight. That's just the truth.”

“Thanks to social media, we've also been able to show ourselves as we are. In the end, masks are useless. You have to be real.”

“I think one of the paradoxes of writing fiction is when people enjoy it, they want it to be real. So they look for connections.”
