I am pretty fearless, and you know why? Because I don’t handle fear very well; I’m not a good terrified person.
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.
I’ve seen every one, from Motley Crue to John Denver, with tears running down my face. I had no idea everyone had such a hard time.
Stop dragging my heart around.
You don’t need help to write a song. You just need to get over this experience that bummed you out so bad. The relationship you were in is over, it was over a long time ago, and you need to move on.
You know, the man of my dreams might walk round the corner tomorrow. I’m older and wiser and I think I’d make a great girlfriend. I live in the realm of romantic possibility.
Rock and menopause do not mix.
