    • Toby Keith: (on what he's learned about filmmaking) Even if you're only shooting for six or eight weeks, the prep time for it and then all of the media and the soundtrack and all that stuff that we get involved in at Show Dog is very time-consuming.
    • Toby Keith: I'm working on a script right now called Beer for My Horses, and I want to do a full motion picture on it. I just gotta get off my lazy butt and finish the script.
    • Toby Keith: (about wanting to make movies every other year) That's about all I can do, unless something comes along that I don't have to be that involved in. Maybe spend a month or something on somebody else's movie, playing a great part, I'd do that. But to have the leading role and have the movie wrapped around what I'm doing, I can only do about every other year.
    • Toby Keith: (In response to fan club members who raised money for Ally's House) I want to thank all of my warriors who have supported Ally's House. You have raised a remarkable amount of money for families of children with cancer and honored Ally. That means so much to me. You really are the best.
    • Toby Keith: (On how he wrote I Love This Bar) I was sitting on the bus with co-writer Scotty Emerick one night after a show, and we had a little groove going on. We were just talking about all the characters you see in a bar and just started writing it. It didn't take very long. It just felt like a real good redneck sing-along song.
    • Toby Keith: The awards that make me the proudest are the ones voted for by the public, I want to thank my fans for supporting me through the years. I appreciate you all.
    • Toby Keith: (about singing Mockingbird with his daughter Krystal) She did a great job on the song and I am so proud of her.
    • Toby Keith: (about Krystal's singing) Krystal is an incredible singer and it is just as good as it gets to work with her.
    • Toby Keith: (about the song Mockingbird) Krystal and I used to sing it at home all the time, it sounded so good we decided to cut it as a track on the Greatest Hits 2 album.
    • Toby Keith: This is a great cause and a great way to help get united again and make the world a lot better place to live, it's a chance for everybody to step up.
    • Toby Keith: Right now we are so divided here in the United States with this red state, blue state, right wing, left wing thing.
    • Toby Keith: I was raised in bars. My grandmother had one, and when I was 12 years old I'd go stay with her and that's where I got to watch her band play-she had a seven- or eight-piece band, and I would sit in the kitchen and peek through the door. I was kind of a 12-year-old bottle washer.
    • Toby Keith: My wife got upset, but I usually take those things, when people say stuff about me like that, and turn them into gold. So when the person who said that goes to her Wal-Mart and she's looking for a garden hose and looks over and sees the album, she'll know what a great idea it was to call me white trash with money.
    • Toby Keith: None of the Nashville labels think I'm going to make it. But I feel very confident about my new label, because I'm signed as the first act. And as long as I continue to sell records, the label is going to be outstanding.
    • Toby Keith: Everybody should have their own thing, and if he don't want to be a role model, that should be up to him. In the right situations, I can try to help and be a role model, but I'm still gonna speak my mind, and if that affects the role-model deal, then too bad.
    • Toby Keith: I know how angry I was when I saw those towers come down, and this is my way of serving my country.
    • Toby Keith: My first gig, I was about 17 or 18. But I'd been singing a long time. I got a guitar when I was 8, and started trying to write songs as a teenager.

      "Oh, and I don't want to die for you but if dyin's asked of me I'll bear that cross with honor 'cause freedom don't come free"
    • "You know, I'm pro-troops, but I'm not pro-war." Toby Keith on the war with iraq
