Here's the problem with talking about who I voted for. If I say I voted for Romney, then everybody's like, 'Of course.' If I say I voted for Obama, everybody's like, 'Of course.' And then I'm no longer the guy you can't figure out.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
The truth is, I mostly thought about 'Accidental Racist' in terms of my fans. This song was meant to generate discussion among the people who listen to my albums. What I was most worried about is that my fan base would think that I was preaching to them.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I don't have the answers. But I am asking the questions, and that's the fun part. I'm like the kid in class with his hand up, going, 'Um...' I think that's a powerful place to create from.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
If you make the mistake of looking back too much, you aren't focused enough on the road in front of you.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I don't like to look back. I love the next challenge and don't keep awards. There are a few that are really important, but my parents have most of them.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
My first tweet was at the CMT Awards when I won an award and typed, 'Thank you.' Then I was hooked because the followers started multiplying. It's a great tool.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I'm a country musician. I know how to play jazz, and I can play rock. But I've had to fight my entire career to get a little respect from people who don't understand where I come from.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
The hardest part about writing any song is, what do you write? And how do I rewrite things? You start to run out of ideas that feel fresh.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I'm not a person you can figure out in one month. And you can't listen to one song and say, 'That's who he is.'
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I'm the smart aleck. The class clown. I'm the guy who does the song nobody expects.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I don't think I've changed anything in the country format whatsoever. But I'm not worried about it. I've found my place in it.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I don't think I'm influencing younger artists - they're not trying to be me. But I don't say that in bitterness. I say that with realism.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
We learned that whether or not you support the war, you honor the soldiers that fight.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
Life isn't always black and white. You're not always sure you're right. At least I'm not.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
Everybody goes through a period where you're fighting a lot, I think. Sometimes that can be a good thing for your relationship. That conflict can lead to making up.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I've been ripping the Rolling Stones off with every song I write in some form or another.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
You're going to get flak if you tell the wrong joke, but it's still the wrong joke. Give the wrong speech, you take it on the chin.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I don't want to do risky. I want to do important. And lovable. Important and lovable.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
When you got something you gotta do in your career, you do it. When you get home, and there's work to be done, you do that. It's all about balance.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
In Nashville, if people don't like someone, they say, 'I don't really like him,' then add, 'bless his heart.' In Hollywood, they kind of leave that last part off.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
Out in Hollywood, you get the feeling when people are talking to you, that they are looking right past you - like they're looking to see who else they can talk to.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
When you fall in love, you don't have a whole lot of time. But when it comes to a heartache, all of the sudden you have time on your hands, and it's an outlet for you to write.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
I feel sort of really aware of how the... online cyber world has begun to take over reality.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
It's crazy how loyal country fans are. I can't say enough how much that means to me.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
It's hard to be judgmental once you've been around the world... it's pretty hard to be anything but understanding, and I think it's good for everybody to get out and see someplace other than where you grew up.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
If you're somebody that gets a chance to go somewhere... that has to work somewhere or go to another city, then do your best to see it. Because I just think that's the best way to have an interesting life.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
There's something about being out here on the road that the hours aren't anything like what you're used to when you're at home.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
My dad was president of the volunteer fire department, which was within walking distance to our house. I spent several days of each week there with him - any time the whistle blew, he went. It was truly inspiring to watch him lead that way.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
My father's a firefighter. He was my whole life. And my brother-in-law and several family members are firefighters.
Quote by -Brad Paisley
When I made 'Who Needs Pictures,' my first album, I had been west of the Mississippi River one time in my life, and that was in fourth grade. We traveled to California for vacation and stayed with some friends of my parents. It was culture shock, and it was different.
