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
Image
the relentless touring and endless repetition of the same songs over and over again promoted a creeping awareness that my music had begun to sound like my washing machine.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
Life's full of loss, who knows the cost, living in the memory of the love that never was.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
I love sex as much as I love music, and I think it's as hard to do.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
Everybody has their own level of doing their music. ... Mine just happened to resonate over the years, in one way and another, with a significant enough number of people so that I could do it professionally.

This is an election year, and I think we're in desperate trouble and it's time for people to speak up and not pipe down. It's a real conflict for me when I go to a concert and find out somebody in the audience is a Republican or fundamental Christian. It can cloud my enjoyment. I'd rather not know.

Even though I know how very far apart we are, it helps to think we might be wishing underneath the same bright star.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
So goodbye, I'll be leaving, I see no sense in this crying and grieving. We'll both live a lot longer, if you live without me.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
Being an entertainer, especially in times like these, is really a public service.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
The essential elements of singing are voice, musicianship, and story. It is the rare artist that has all three in abundance.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
Your musical soul is like facets of a jewel, and you stick out one facet at a time ... (and) I tend to work real hard on whatever it is I do, to get it up to speed, up to a professional level. I tend to bury myself in one thing for years at a time.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
The thing you have to be prepared for is that other people don't always dream your dream.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
Being a celebrity made me so uncomfortable that I would have preferred standing behind the amplifiers.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
If you don't have story to tell the public at large - you have to be able to sort of go listen.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
The greatest sin is carelessness.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
I thought everybody could sing, because everybody in my family could.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
I just thought that I was going to get to sing for a living and I wouldn't have to go to work in the department store or whatever else you did if you were a woman in those days.
Linda Ronstadt
Image
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
