Chrissie Hynde
I always thought if a guy could play the guitar, he must be something really special.
Chrissie Hynde
The only person stopping you from doing something is yourself, and looking for excuses all the time just gets in the way of obtaining your own goals. It's like the writer who keeps getting up and straightening the pictures in the room.
Chrissie Hynde
I don't think it's good to be sentimental, so I try not to be.
Chrissie Hynde
You try to be arrogant in songs because you can't be in real life.
