You're the reason our kids are ugly.
Loretta Lynn
Image
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
Image
I'm always making Butcher Holler sound like the most backward part of the United States-and I think maybe it is.
Loretta Lynn

Really, I don't know what I'd do with myself if I retire. Wash dishes?

Who wants to be married to a grandfather?
Loretta Lynn

It's important that you take care of yourself and blow off steam in the right way. Don't let some woman walk in and say, hey, goodbye! and take your man. Kill her if you can! I'm only kidding.

If I found out some gal was trying to steal my guy, I'd want to give her a black eye! Instead, I wrote this song. At the time I was writing each song [on this album], you could figure out the frame of mind I was in by listening closely. With every song I've ever recorded, I'm in it. I wouldn't write about it if I wasn't in it.

Me and my partner, Conway Twitty, cleaned up at the 1972 Country Music Association Awards.

Image
We used to go around tipping outhouses over, or turning over corn shocks on Halloween. Anything to be mean.
Loretta Lynn
Image
If I had a chance to do things over again, I might not start singing. It was my husband Doolittle's idea. He pushed me out there, the booger. And I'm out there now, so I might as well make the best of it.
Loretta Lynn
Image
Being on stage is the best part of my career. I just say whatever comes into my head. It's the only time I feel grown-up and in control of things.
Loretta Lynn
Image
My biggest hero, Gregory Peck, was my birthday present on April 14, 1973. I just sat and stared at him.
Loretta Lynn
Image
I think Charley Pride has been one of the best things to happen to country music, to prove it belongs to everybody.

I want more out of life than I've gotten.

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.

I came out the back of the building and I was hollering, 'I've sung on the Grand Ole Opry! I've sung on the Grand Ole Opry!'
