I wasn't raised with money, so I had to get used to having it. I think I've adjusted to it pretty well.

My songs are self-explanatory... somebody pointed out to me that... my songs pretty much speak for themselves.

The old Fleetwood Mac was much better; they did some beautiful and, to my mind, very authentic blues. Chicken Shack did pretty well in Europe, but after I left, it was over.

It's very hard to step into a job when people are just dismissing you as a pretty face, and saying you got your job only because your surname is McMahon.

I was pretty young when my father was prime minister, so it wasn't really a big part of my life. My folks were away a lot, meeting foreign dignitaries and that sort of thing, but it never struck me as odd. If anything it allowed me to get into all sorts of mischief.

The young are generally full of revolt, and are often pretty revolting about it.

I was a pretty insecure kid, didn't have a lot of friends, and was picked on a lot, and music gave me confidence.

It's an amazing luxury to say I'm 31 years old and I'm gonna take a year off. That's pretty amazing.

I'm kind of the town pump. I think I have a pretty good ear for what sounds good in this style.

It wasn't that I was shy to go out with him, I just didn't want people with preconceived notions to assume anything about why we were together. I was pretty careful for a while.

Marriage was all a woman's idea and for man's acceptance of the pretty yoke, it becomes us to be grateful.

A lot was happening, plus there were an enormous number of people in the industry that were going to conventions, so it was a pretty fun time. Also there was a lot of controversy and I was at the forefront of some of that.

I love a lot of things, and I'm pretty much obsessive about most things I do, whether it be gardening, or architecture, or music. I'd be an obsessive hairdresser.

I don't think of myself as a movie star and I can pretty easily convince other people that I'm not a movie star.

I had been writing for about twelve years. I knew pretty well how you could find things out, but I had never been trained in an academic way how to go about the research.
