Patsy Cline

"I don't wanna get rich — just live good."

"You don't appreciate home until you leave it and, let me tell you, you can't appreciate life till you've almost left it! Some people hope and die with their song still in them. I used to think that happiness resulted when my earnings matched my yearnings! But not anymore!"

"Oh, I just sing like I hurt inside."

"Find one person in the audience and sing to them with all of your heart. And then cast a spell over them. Hoss, if you can't do it with feeling — don't."

"You're alright honey. Anyone who'll stand up to "The Cline" is alright. We're going to be good friends."

"When I find out who stole it I'll take blood, ass and all!"

"Before Dolly, Loretta and Reba, there was Patsy. She was the first female country headliner and one of the first artists in the genre to have crossover pop success, which is basically a pre-requisite in terms of Rock Hall induction. During her prime, Cline was very much on the same level as fellow stars like Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley and is a clear example of the Rock Hall’s need to focus more on women."
