If you don't have a flag sticking out of your ass, you must be a communist.
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 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
Once you stop drinking and smoking and stuff, it really gets on your nerves, all that nonsense going on.
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
It's my tough luck if things happen that are complicated.

Realize your own potential and try to live out your expectations of your potential.

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.

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.
