Linda Ronstadt Quotes:
Cocaine made people deaf, it made people dead and it made people real obnoxious.
Linda Ronstadt
I don't think you can look for love. All you can do is get yourself in a situation where you don't discourage something that may be rather nice.
Linda Ronstadt

Linda Ronstadt
The constant fear of a performer is to become what is reflected back at you.
Linda Ronstadt
