When I would be on the stage singing, I would see a movie of something that happened, I would be telling the story. I would be describing the story in sound, but my goal would be to make somebody else run their own movie.
Linda Ronstadt
I never wrote anything down. I never kept a diary, never kept a journal. I did write one letter home about touring with the Doors that I used as a reference for the book for some details there, and then I was glad I had that, but that was it.
Linda Ronstadt
The government has to spend money during a recession, because their spending is our earning.

I can't sing half as well as Claudia Lennear. Hats off to her, but somehow, things happened for me.
Linda Ronstadt
I get on the airplane and there's a screen in front of everything. You get into a taxicab in New York, there's a screen blinking at you. I think it's going to have a tremendous effect on our brains, because those bright, saturated colors and those strong lines, they do things to your brain.
Linda Ronstadt
I think if the United States gave anything to culture at large in the 20th century, the most important contribution made was the popular song.
Linda Ronstadt
Music is a work in progress. On a record, it gets frozen in time. And it's oddly unnatural.
Linda Ronstadt
Life's full of loss, who knows the cost, living in the memory of the love that never was.
Linda Ronstadt
I think if you do what's in your heart - Joseph Campbell always says you have to follow your bliss, and if you do, doors open where you didn't even realize there were doors.
Linda Ronstadt
When I was taking arithmetic in the first grade I said to myself, I'm going to be a singer. I don't have to worry about numbers. I didn't think I was going to be famous or a star.
Linda Ronstadt
The essential elements of singing are voice, musicianship, and story. It is the rare artist that has all three in abundance.
