Quotes

Naomi Judd: I love to hear people's stories. People listen to The Judds, and we listen to them, whether it's people listening to our music, coming to see one of my speaking engagements, reading one of the books that I write or going to see Ashley's [Ashley Judd's] movies. But we get inspired by them. (edit)
Naomi Judd: I loved being an RN. It taught me so much about humanness. I learned that we are all exactly the same. We wear different masks, and we may have slightly different personal histories, but we are all exactly the same. And I learned about medicine. (edit)
Naomi Judd: I was bonked on the head by this fairy godmother, who I consider the fans. They accepted me and changed my life forever. And when I would get on that stage, I wanted to live that fantasy I had longed for. I was so tired of buying my clothes at the flea market and having to take my kids to the United Way Thrift Store when school started. I felt so guilty, so incompetent as a mom. (edit)
Naomi Judd: I say that I will never be free of hepatitis C as long as somebody else out there is suffering. I still make visits to hospitals and to folks who are, God bless them, on the transplant list. (edit)
Naomi Judd: I've never smoked a cigarette, and I've never drunk a beer. I laugh all the time. I have inner peace. There's nothing different about me. There is absolutely nothing special about Naomi Judd. I am not a magical being. (edit)

Superb
"Talented"
She is an amazing star. She has taught her daughters well, with performing. She was an amazing judge on Star Search, especially because she has never put anyone down. I hope she continues her success forever.
