I don't think it's good to be sentimental, so I try not to be.
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
Once you stop drinking and smoking and stuff, it really gets on your nerves, all that nonsense going on.
Chrissie Hynde
I just want to play guitar and be in a band. Same as I always did.
