I am most thankful to Almighty Providence for mercies received, and determined still to press the case into public notice as a token of gratitude.

I still don't look at myself as a star. I've always had a thankful heart.

I'm just thankful to have a tour and work something I can focus on.

I have spent over 60 years bent over a guitar and to know that I wrote 70 compositions that masters have recorded, that makes me feel so good and full, and proud and thankful to the good Lord.

Look, if I ever stop being grateful for gigs, I just need to stop. Because this business is... you know, it's just so kind of job-to-job, and the fact that I've continued working... I'm just incredibly thankful for it. And I never, ever take it for granted.

I will forever be thankful to the Malawians and international community, and my professional army and army general, who said: 'No, we will follow the constitution.' That's why I'm here.

It feels great to win and I can't be more thankful to the Lord for walking me through every step. God was and is so faithful every time.

I'm so thankful for the Internet because actors and singers and performers now have a way to connect with their fans on a very personal level which I think is quite special.

I am very proud of my mom and consider her the most courageous woman I know. With perseverance, sacrifice and hard work, she raised a family of Olympic athletes and gave us the tools and the spirit to succeed. That is something that my brothers and I will always be thankful for.

I'm thankful to get the opportunity to direct. I hope I don't mess it up.
