"I think the main reason I am how I am [is because of] an innate fear of disappointing my mom. My mom’s not even alive, and I have a fear of her looking down from heaven and going, 'Man I’m just disappointed in my son.' She could have said anything in the world to me, but if she would have said, 'Son, you just disappointed me.' That would have killed me. It would have killed me." - Darius Rucker [quote via Capitol Nashville]
