If you’re an unattractive girl who’s trying to be beautiful with Botox, forget it. If you are a beautiful girl who’s trying to be beautiful with Botox, you will look like you’re angry all the time.
If I had my life to live over, I would never dream.
It was my 16th birthday – my mom and dad gave me my Goya classical guitar that day. I sat down, wrote this song, and I just knew that that was the only thing I could ever really do – write songs and sing them to people.
Singing is the love of my life, but I was ready to give it all up because I couldn’t handle people talking about how fat I was.
I am pretty fearless, and you know why? Because I don’t handle fear very well; I’m not a good terrified person.
Rock and menopause do not mix. It is not good, it sucks and every day I fight it to the death, or, at the very least, not let it take me over.
I saw her do ‘Different Drum’ and thought, that’s what I’m gonna do. I don’t look that good in cut-offs, but that’s what I’m gonna do.
I didn’t want to look like anyone else – like Janis Joplin or Grace Slick. That’s why I never went to any of the big designers.
When you’re rich and famous you are the dominant force in a relationship, even if you try hard not to be. I’ve talked of sacrificing everything for Fleetwood Mac, but I realize now that it is simply the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do.
Being able to take care of myself is something that my mom really instilled in me.
For 70 nights, right across America, I’ve been getting out there with two ex-lovers and we’ve been playing songs which are so specific about each of us, you just wouldn’t know. We’re friends now but we can’t forget what happened between us.
As a member of Fleetwood Mac, for two weeks I was still working at the restaurant because I’d given them notice. I didn’t just want to walk in there and say, “‘I’m going to be a famous rock star so I quit and I never liked your food anyway”.
I’ve laid down with love and woke up with lies. What’s it all, worth only the heart can measure.
A wound gets worse when it’s treated with neglect.
Love is only one fine star away, even though the living is sometimes laced with lies.
Love is a word that some entertain. If you find it you have won the game.
But for me, I knew that if I had a baby, I would have to take care of that baby, and I wouldn’t have been happy with a nanny taking care of my baby and walking into the room and having my child run across the room to another woman.
Most women would not be happy being me. People say, ‘But you’re alone.’ But I don’t feel alone. I feel very un-alone.
I made a conscious decision that I was not going to have children. I didn’t want others raising them, and looking after them myself would get in the way of being a musician and writer.
I don’t really like to be filmed.
