More quotes by Loretta Lynn
My life has run from misery to happiness.
Loretta Lynn
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
Nobody's perfect. The only one that ever was, was crucified.
Loretta Lynn
I never knew any Jews until I got into show business. I've found them to be real smart and good workers.
Loretta Lynn
When something is bothering me, I write a song that tells my feelings.
Loretta Lynn
I won all the blue ribbons for canning at the state fair.
Loretta Lynn
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.
Loretta Lynn
You've got to continue to grow, or you're just like last night's cornbread - stale and dry.
Loretta Lynn
I avoid going through places where there's too much poverty.
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.
Loretta Lynn
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
Sometimes it's like you're a big pie settin' on the table, and everybody runs up and gets their piece of you. When it's over' the plate's empty.
Loretta Lynn
You get used to sadness, growing up in the mountains, I guess.
Loretta Lynn
If anyone asks how old I am, tell them it's none of their business!
Loretta Lynn
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!'
Loretta Lynn
Write about the truth. If you write about the truth, somebody's living that. Not just somebody, there's a lot of people.
Loretta Lynn
I never knew where babies came from until it happened to me.
Loretta Lynn
Who wants to be married to a grandfather?
Loretta Lynn
I've seen things, and that's almost the same as doing them.
Loretta Lynn
My attitude toward men who mess around is simple: If you find 'em, kill 'em.
Loretta Lynn
