There was a chance for me to write one song for the section where Elvis sat in his black leather outfit and sang the old hits. At eight oclock the next morning I had written Memories.

Elvis was just like a big old kid. It was like he never got past 19, I don't think, in a lotta ways.

One of my real goals was to hear someone whistling a song I'd written.

First time I saw Elvis was at the Lubbock County fairgrounds in Lubbock, Texas. He was on the back end of a truck. There was about 1500 screaming kids.

We won't accomplish our goals by creating a new federal bureaucracy or by bribing states with their own taxpayers' money.

I could care less about statistics. It's all about team success.

In order to have the success with 'Empire,' you have to have Fox; you have to have huge P&A. You have to have huge budgets for the show. I'm pretty confident that the budget of 'Empire' is six times what I'm spending on 'Have And Have Nots.'

I think all the time about the ways in which I'm the beneficiary of the women's movement's success.
