“I had a lot of chances to do things that other people don't ever get, ...” — Linda Ronstadt Quote

I had a lot of chances to do things that other people don't ever get, and I have to be content with that. I have to look around for some other way to make myself useful.

Ninety-eight percent of the singing I did was private singing - it was in the shower, at the dishwasher, driving my car, singing with the radio, whatever. I can't do any of that now. I wish I could. I don't miss performing, particularly, but I miss singing.

I used to feel kind of impatient with people who couldn't do things fast or couldn't remember stuff.

I used to live with J.D. Souther, and I would watch him write. He's be sitting, he'd say something, and then he'd write it down. That's craft.

It wasn't until the second half of my first year that I realized you have to try to make friends and meet people at Harvard; the chances don't come to you.

I did not think my chances were very big when I saw some of the other men who were competing for the team. They were a good group, and I had a lot of respect for them. But I decided to give it the old school try and to take some of NASA's tests.

When you're a striker, you want to play all the games, and most chances come at the end because defenders are tired.

I come from a Napoli team who scored 104 goals. Do you think I'm going to be hyper-defensive with Real Madrid? A team that creates chances and is great in possession is not defensive.
