The day before my 16th birthday I got my guitar.

When you're rich and famous you are the dominant force in a relationship, even if you try hard not to be. I've talked of sacrificing everything for Fleetwood Mac, but I realize now that it is simply the only thing I've ever wanted to do.

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.

If you have stage fright, it never goes away. But then I wonder: is the key to that magical performance because of the fear?

I am pretty fearless, and you know why? Because I don't handle fear very well; I'm not a good terrified person.

You know, the man of my dreams might walk round the corner tomorrow. I'm older and wiser and I think I'd make a great girlfriend. I live in the realm of romantic possibility.

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.

Being able to take care of myself is something that my mom really instilled in me.

Most women would not be happy being me. People say, 'But you're alone.' But I don't feel alone. I feel very un-alone.

Prince and I were just friends. I think he would have been happy to have had a relationship.
