Stevie Nicks

Little girls think it’s necessary to put all their business on MySpace and Facebook, and I think it’s a shame… I’m all about mystery.

I’m really an old-fashioned girl, and I think I’m totally sexy.

Thunder only happens when it’s raining; players only love you when they’re playing.

There is a part of me that has to depend on fantasy, because if you can’t be somewhat of a fantasy person, then you can’t write.

I want to be age appropriate. I don’t want to be that girl you see walking away and she looks 25 and then she turns around and she looks 90.

I hope you find a love. Your own designs of love.

[On Lou Adler] Lou really had a production deal called a label, whereas we had a real label. We had a great many artists, whereas he had very few. Lou also produced most of the stuff that came out on Ode. We were not producers.

There is no such thing as ugly. That’s a word that doesn’t really enter my vocabulary. If there’s any definition to being perfect, you’re perfect at being yourself.

I’m the worst at picking what movies are going to do well. I have no idea. I’m really surprised if a movie I like does well.

I’m obsessed with neon sneakers.

It’s nice to be important, but it’s important to always be nice.

In the middle of everything that I’ve done as a singer or as somebody who’s jumped on top of a few old books and turned ‘em into songs about hobbits f*cking vikings, I think I’ve danced a beautiful dance through it all, without becoming too much of a cliche. I’ve enjoyed the two-step. It’s brought me great gifts.

I feel like everyone you mentioned owes an enormous debt to Jon Stewart’s Daily Show, because I think that started this trend of people having talkshows where they have a point of view that they’re not afraid to share.

I think the world has too many actresses.

I say if you’re so mad you could just cry, then cry. It terrifies everyone.

To rock isn’t necessarily to cavort.

I love artists who take risks-I think they inspire everybody else about horrible situations that no one wants to discuss.

I’m not always the first person to run out and see something I’m in. I don’t know; for me, that’s not why I did it. I did it because I wanted to act. I don’t really think about the end result. I don’t feel like I have to see it – for me, it already happened.

[on shopping] God no! I hate it, absolutely hate it. I can’t stand it, it’s such a drag. So I just tend to wear the same things all the time. I don’t like change anyway.

In most cases being a good boss means hiring talented people and then getting out of their way.

I like to write about women, not so much about the way they relate to men, but about the way they relate to each other.
