Loretta Lynn
I'm not a big fan of Women's Liberation, but maybe it will help women stand up for the respect they're due.

Loretta Lynn
My attitude toward men who mess around is simple: If you find 'em, kill 'em.

My mother used to paper pictures from movie magazines on the wall of her bedroom. When I was born, she looked at those pictures to decide on a name for me. Claudette Colbert's picture was up there and so was Loretta Young's. She decided Loretta was the prettiest name, so I was named after her.
Loretta Lynn
Daddy was real gentle with kids. That's why I expected so much out of marriage, figuring that all men should be steady and pleasant.
Loretta Lynn
Really, I don't know what I'd do with myself if I retire. Wash dishes?
Loretta Lynn
My biggest hero, Gregory Peck, was my birthday present on April 14, 1973. I just sat and stared at him.
Loretta Lynn
Nobody's perfect. The only one that ever was, was crucified.
Loretta Lynn
I'm always making Butcher Holler sound like the most backward part of the United States-and I think maybe it is.
Loretta Lynn
Sometimes they work, and sometimes they just won't. Sometimes you get hung up on them. When that happens, you just throw it back, and maybe come back to it two or three weeks later.
Loretta Lynn
