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
Image
I never knew where babies came from until it happened to me.
Loretta Lynn

I wasn't for Vietnam. When I told that to the hippie newspaper, all my people got nervous.
Loretta Lynn

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

You ain't supposed to get salmon when they're swimming upstream to spawn. But if you're hungry, you do.
Loretta Lynn
