I don't really go out to clubs, but if I did, I'd just want to go rock out with my mates or whatever.

I like Madonna a lot. I think she's really good and I think she's a good singer. I think she looks good and she's got a nice kind of... I don't think she's got a sinister or cynical vibe around her, and I don't think she's got any sort of bullshit around her.
Chrissie Hynde
I don't like to be recognized on the street or in restaurants, and I don't like the whole celebrity thing.
Chrissie Hynde
The Clash were innovative, radical and helped drive a change in music that was ground-breaking. In comparison to some of the music today they sounded like they meant it. I still listen to their music today to remind myself what music made with commitment sounds like.

Remember those black-and-white films with Frank Sinatra? Those guys looked like men and they were only 27! Listen to Otis Redding singing 'Try A Little Tenderness'. That was a man who understood what a man has to know in the world. Show me a real man now! Where are they?

I just want to play guitar and be in a band. Same as I always did.

I don't think it's good to be sentimental, so I try not to be.

I'm 34 now, I like to say 35 because it makes me look better for my age, and I have to keep a little bit of a profile so that every three years if I do put a record out, I don't have to substantiate where I've been for three years and why the silence and the sort of false mysterioso.
Chrissie Hynde
Songwriting is like working on a jigsaw puzzle, and it doesn't make any sense until you find that last piece. It has to make sense or it doesn't work.
Chrissie Hynde
What characterized the whole punk scene for me in 1977 was there was no racism or sexism. It was an anarchy of -isms, and a matter of abolishing it all.
Chrissie Hynde
I'm all for bootlegging. A record costs $20 . . . who can afford that?
Chrissie Hynde
I just want to be as regular, and get by with doing the least amount of publicity, but still look really cool, you know? And get a bit of respect.
Chrissie Hynde
Real success is not being on the cover of a magazine it's knowing that you've done, and enjoyed doing, what you set out to do.
Chrissie Hynde
There's this celebrity thing that goes along with making records or being a rock star. I'm into this celebrity thing just enough to let me go on making records and making a living out of it.
Chrissie Hynde
I think Bob Dylan's a good songwriter. I think he's the best songwriter in the world probably.
Chrissie Hynde
Whatever I'm already doing becomes enhanced when I smoke pot. It can also be demotivating, because if I'm not doing anything and I smoke a joint, it enhances just sitting in a chair. Then I don't even want to get up to change a record. That might not be a bad thing, but you have to get things done once in a while.
Chrissie Hynde
If you're purely derivative in what you do, then you could very easily get lost along the way. But for me, I might want to even do something else for a while.
Chrissie Hynde
I don't believe there is any justifiable reason for killing any animal unless perhaps if it's killing you! That would be negotiable.
