More quotes by Linda Ronstadt
I wish I had as much in bed as I get in the newspapers.
Linda Ronstadt
I thought everybody could sing, because everybody in my family could.
Linda Ronstadt
Art is for healing ourselves, and everybody needs their own personal art to heal up their problems.
Linda Ronstadt
The government has to spend money during a recession, because their spending is our earning.
Linda Ronstadt
Music is a work in progress. On a record, it gets frozen in time. And it's oddly unnatural.
Linda Ronstadt
I can't sing half as well as Claudia Lennear. Hats off to her, but somehow, things happened for 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
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
A lot of singers that I've heard that I may not like their sensibility, but I see that they're entitled to whatever they get. People don't get there without talent, they really don't.
Linda Ronstadt
Being an entertainer, especially in times like these, is really a public service.
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
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
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
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
The greatest sin is carelessness.
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
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
I can sing better after shooting smack in both arms than after eating too much.
Linda Ronstadt
The thing you have to be prepared for is that other people don't always dream your dream.
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
