Quotes from Linda D. Thompson

For so long I just let people surmise what they would about my life and my choices, and other people have written books and told tales.

I think that happens to a lot of people who find themselves thrust into the spotlight and becoming famous before they recognize what's happening to them. Life becomes a little distorted for them.

I think you get one great love in your life like that, if you're lucky enough, where you hold nothing back. And I'm not saying that's the healthiest way to love either.

I grew up very conservatively and traditionally. I wanted to save myself for marriage.
