There are no real men.
Chrissie Hynde
There'sthemeat eaters and there'sus. And that'stheway I look at the world.
Chrissie Hynde
Let's face it, we do have this mating instinct that just won't quit, you know? Just when you think it's safe to come out, there it is again. You're driving down the street, and it's the last thing on your mind, and all of a sudden you're like, Oh, he looks nice, and you're up a lamppost.
Chrissie Hynde
I think Bob Dylan's a good songwriter. I think he's the best songwriter in the world probably.
Chrissie Hynde
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.
Chrissie Hynde
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?
Chrissie Hynde
In my experience lust only ever leads to misery. All that suspicion and jealousy and anguish it unleashes. I don't want those things in my life.
Chrissie Hynde
Everyone has their set of problems and I'm certainly not going to sensationalize mine or try to evoke pity or sympathy out of people because I don't think they warrant that sort of thing. That's my private karma that I have to work out.
Chrissie Hynde
I just want to play guitar and be in a band. Same as I always did.
Chrissie Hynde
Once you stop drinking and smoking and stuff, it really gets on your nerves, all that nonsense going on.
Chrissie Hynde
I don't think it's good to be sentimental, so I try not to be.
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
I hope there is an edge to what I do.
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
When you're in a band and you're a girl, you know, guys just don't ... it's not the same kind of a groove as a girl walking up wearing a mac with nothing on underneath, or knocking on someone's door at three in the morning.
Chrissie Hynde
I don't want my children to be at a disadvantage, growing up in the limelight, because then they have to live up to an identity already cut out for them, relating all the time to being so-and-so's daughter or so-and-so's son.
Chrissie Hynde
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
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 was a single mom with two kids. What else was I going to do? It was either be in a band or be a waitress.
