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.

If you don't have story to tell the public at large - you have to be able to sort of go listen.
Linda Ronstadt
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
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 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
Love will abide, take things in stride.
Linda Ronstadt
I dont think you can look for love. All you can do is get yourself in a situation where you dont discourage something that may be rather nice.
Linda Ronstadt
The thing you have to be prepared for is that other people don't always dream your dream.

Marijuana has a lot of very good medical uses, and I truly believe it should be legal, but for just recreational use it wasn't my drug. I didn't like it.
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

Linda Ronstadt
American radio from the '30s through the '60s was just fabulous. There was such a diversity.
Linda Ronstadt
Being an entertainer, especially in times like these, is really a public service.
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
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 wish I had as much in bed as I get in the newspapers.
Linda Ronstadt
Music isn't just for professionals. We delegate all of our music and our dancing and our art to professionals. It's silly. We should be doing our own dancing and drawing.
Linda Ronstadt
Everywhere you go, there's a soundtrack. You can't really quite hear it. It's just a little out of the range of hearing.
Linda Ronstadt
You and I, travel to the beat of a different drum, can't you tell by the way I run, every time you make eyes at me.
Linda Ronstadt
I never went to the Beatles' concerts to scream. I never screamed at anybody's show. I was on my feet with the entire, all of the crowned heads of Motown, and we were shrieking our guts out.
Linda Ronstadt
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
