I think Bob Dylan's a good songwriter. I think he's the best songwriter in the world probably.
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
