My generation fought very hard for feminism, and we fought very hard to not be labeled as you had to have a husband or you had to be in a relationship, or you were somehow not a cool chick.

More quotes by Stevie Nicks
I said,'Instead of going in the direction that a lot of the women singers are going in [revealing], I'll be very, very sexy under 18 pounds of chiffon and lace and velvet...I will have mystique.
Stevie Nicks
Don't Listen To Her, Listen Through Her. Stevie Nicks
Stevie Nicks
When you're hurt or angry, let go by tapping into your humbleness. You want people to remember you for your grace.
Stevie Nicks
Men are going to go out on the road and they're going to find other women. So if you really want to save yourself a whole lot of heartache, do not fall in love with somebody in a band. Just don't.
Stevie Nicks
It was my 16th birthday-my mom and dad gave me my Goya classical guitar that day. I sat down, wrote this song, and I just knew that that was the only thing I could ever really do-write songs and sing them to people. [...] Everything on this record is what I really wanted to say, and I'm back to being the poet I always thought I was.
Stevie Nicks
I don't like that [scaring] feeling and I watch the news every day because of it. It's going to be hard to fix all of these problems that seem absolutely unfixable to me.
Stevie Nicks
I had Botox and I hated it. For four long months, I looked like a different person.
Stevie Nicks
I've always liked long, flowing clothes,...I used to rummage around in my grandmother's trunks trying to find them. I love the feeling of chiffon and lace.
Stevie Nicks
I blame it [never taking a break] on my mother. She was a born entertainer. Leave the songwriting, the singing and all that behind, and I still would have found some way to be an entertainer. I would have never been an actress, though, because I realized early in my life, in like sixth grade, I was a terrible actress.
Stevie Nicks
I hated Chris, my brother. I would pull his hair and kick him, until one day my father gave him permission to fight back. I'll be apologizing to him for the rest of my life.
Stevie Nicks
Most bands people have side projects and it's not considered a death threat as it was say, with The Beatles.
Stevie Nicks
I wouldn't like to be in movies. Movie people are strange. They live a different life than musicians do.
Stevie Nicks
You don’t need help to write a song. You just need to get over this experience that bummed you out so bad. The relationship you were in is over, it was over a long time ago, and you need to move on.
Stevie Nicks
I don't love the years going by. I'd just as soon stay forty-five. But it's OK because I feel a whole lot better than I did at thirty-five.
Stevie Nicks
In Fleetwood Mac I have a persona, I call myself the 'Spider Woman'. I try to imagine myself putting on a spider mask. I become very subdued and quieter, I don't move so fast., I'm in a state of suspended animation.
Stevie Nicks
Thunder only happens when it's raining.
Stevie Nicks
I've seen every one, from Motley Crue to John Denver, with tears running down my face. I had no idea everyone had such a hard time.
Stevie Nicks
You live by the light of the moon, and I live by desire.
Stevie Nicks
I've laid down with love and woke up with lies. What's it all, worth only the heart can measure.
Stevie Nicks
Every girl - and boy, if you so choose - should take some ballet. Because ballet gives you grace. It gives you [the ability] to work with your hands. It's all about your hands.
