The musician is perhaps the most modest of animals but he is also the proudest. It is he who invented the sublime art of ruining poetry.

My marriage to my husband Bart Conner in 1996 is my proudest personal moment.

I suppose I'm proudest of my novels for what's imagined in them. I think the world of my imagination is a richer and more interesting place than my personal biography.

I consider myself a product of Alaska. The love and the debt that I feel to my home state you always want your hometown to be the proudest of you.

It is funny the two things most men are proudest of is the thing that any man can do and doing does in the same way that is being drunk and being the father of their son.

Becoming a dad was the proudest moment of my life. Playing football does not even compare.

The strangest most generous and proudest of all virtues is true courage.

The real amazing thing about all of this is I think I've maintained the mentality of a musician throughout it all which I'm proudest of. And I'm still playing on people's records and singing on people's records.
