I suppose I could have sat back and pitied myself. For a time I wondered if I'd ever be able to go on to a stage and perform again. After a couple of weeks I began to feel I could fight my way back to health if I put my mind to it. I thought to myself: 'Pity never did anybody any good. Go on. Patsy, show 'em what you can do'
I can't miss a night's work and let my public down.
My new house is going to have wall-to-wall awards!
The one thing I wanted to do more than anything else was sing country music.
The final words of a domestic bully: If you leave me now furious angels will descend upon you and bring you back to me.
I don't want to get rich - just live good.
I could spit dust I'm so mad. He wants to put violins on my new session. I'll die before I'll go all the way pop.
I wish to be put away in a western dress I designed, with my daughter's little gold cross necklace and my son's small white testament in my hands, and my wedding band on.
I don''t wanna be rich, just live good.
Im gonna be something one of these days.
You're gonna have to learn to get out there in front of those cameras and hold your head up. Take charge when you're singing.
You might say it was my return to the living that launched me as a singer. I was placed in an oxygen tent, and the doctors brought me back to life.
I played with Arthur Godfrey for about a year and a half.
I'd like to do my first record I ever made, A Church, a Courtroom, and Then Goodbye.
