Quotes from Carrie Underwood

I am a Christian person, and I do love the Lord, and I feel no matter who you are, what you believe, how you live your life, it's not my place to judge. I don't have that power. I don't want that power. It's my place to love and to show God's love to other people, even if they don't live a life like I live.

We're all different. That's what makes us special. We have to love each other and get on with each other. It's not up to me to judge anybody.

As a married person myself, I don't know what it's like to be told I can't marry somebody I love and want to marry. I can't imagine how that must feel. I definitely think we should all have the right to love, and love publicly, the people that we want to love.

Every Wednesday, my husband and I have a study group with our friends. I attend church. We try to devote time in the morning, say a prayer.

The only other time I've been away from home was when I went to college. And that was just an hour away, so I could always go home if I needed to.

I don't want to listen to everybody's problems all the time. And I doubt anybody wants to listen to mine.

The more boys I meet the more I love my dog.

When you figure out love is all that matters after all, it sure makes everything else seem so small.

All of us gave it all we've got, overcame a whole lot just being on the show and learned a lot about ourselves. We're just normal people trying to do what we love and follow our dreams.

I'm not worried. I'm just so grateful to be in the position that I'm in. I'm just going with the flow right now, and I think my album will come together quite nicely because I think everybody is on the same page.

When I'm with my parents, that's the place I can unplug. That's the place I can shut down and not worry about work or what's going on. I go home and hang out with them. I sleep more there than any place else ever.

If something can be said to make an awkward moment even worse, I'm going to say it.

I love sporting events and popcorn and pizza and being outside, like at a baseball or football game. I love amusement parks, going to ride roller coasters.

As far as subject matter, I'd say most of the songs aren't that personal to me. I love making up characters and kind of having fun in a different kind of way.

I have a candle on the bus that smells like caramel brownie. I love anything that smells like food!

I'm girlie in the sense that I like makeup, but I also love sports and man food.

I love scary movies. I like blood and gore, and I love Halloween movies.

Nobody's going to tell me that my dog doesn't love me. That's crazy talk.

But my husband came from a small town and hardworking parents like I did, and I don't think we've lost that mind-set. We don't have a bowling alley in our basement. We don't have houses on the beach and one in New York and one in L.A.

I respect country music because I feel like it's more about the talent and the songwriting and I put on a big show and we have a lot of stuff, but I feel confident in myself enough as an artist and a singer that I can have all of those fun toys and know that we don't need all the bells and whistles either.

Peace Love Rock and Roll!!!

When we love the stars light up, the wrong becomes undone. Naturally, my soul surrenders.

As far as talent goes, we had pretty much everything, and I think that's why this year was so successful.

*Oh, I know I could say were through And tell myself I'm over you But even if I made a vow I promise not to miss you now And try to hide the truth inside I fell cause I, I just can't live a lie *
