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 don't wish to embarrass anyone.
Chrissie Hynde
I hope there is an edge to what I do.

I don't believe there is any justifiable reason for killing any animal unless perhaps if it's killing you! That would be negotiable.
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.
Chrissie Hynde
I have no sense of patriotism, but I do have a sense of community.
Chrissie Hynde
I just want to play guitar and be in a band. Same as I always did.
Chrissie Hynde
I think Bob Dylan's a good songwriter. I think he's the best songwriter in the world probably.

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
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
