When you're in a band with three writers, three great writers, you only get one third of the writer thing. so that's the whole reason that i did a solo career. and that's, you know, when i told fleetwood mac i was going to do that, they were of course terrified that i would do that record and then that i would quit.

When You're In A Band With Three

Stevie Nicks

When you're in a band with three writers, three great writers, you only get one third of the writer thing. so that's the whole reason that i did a solo career. and that's, you know, when i told fleetwood mac i was going to do that, they were of course terrified that i would do that record and then that i would quit.

When you buy a meal and you pay a fair price for it, are you doing this to ensure that the employees get health care? when you walk into mickey d's and you buy a big mac, do you ask them, "by the way, is this thing costing enough so that you get health care here? by the way, is this big mac costing enough so that you get a pension here?" do you think any of that when you go buy a big mac? no. you want it to be as cheap as it can be. that's why you're there.

As a member of fleetwood mac, for two weeks i was still working at the restaurant because i'd given them notice. i didn't just want to walk in there and say, "'i'm going to be a famous rock star so i quit and i never liked your food anyway".

Everybody really knows what to do to have his life filled with joy. what is it? quit hating people; start loving them. quit being mad at people; start liking them. quit doing wrong; quit being filled with fear. quit thinking about yourself and go out and do something for other people. everybody knows what you have to do to be happy. but the wisdom of the test lies in the final words: "if ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them."

My other family is fleetwood mac. i don't need the money, but there's an emotional need for me to go on the road again. there's a love there; we're a band of brothers.

I cleaned up. i quit drinking, i quit doing drugs, i quit stealing, i quit breaking into houses, i tried to quit being a bad human being. i developed a conscience later in life than many. i call it the lost-time-regained dynamic.

We think the mac will sell zillions, but we didn't build the mac for anybody else. we built it for ourselves. we were the group of people who were going to judge whether it was great or not. we weren't going to go out and do market research. we just wanted to build the best thing we could build.

I just love fashion. i think it just expresses who you are so much.

We’re surrounded by anonymous, poorly made objects. it’s tempting to think it’s because the people who use them don’t care - just like the people who make them. but what we’ve shown is that people do care. it’s not just about aesthetics. they care about things that are thoughtfully conceived and well made. we make and sell a very, very large number of (hopefully) beautiful, well-made things. our success is a victory for purity, integrity - for giving a damn.

A wise ruler takes advice, but should never be seen to take it. let them think you know more than you do. it will not harm them, and it will help you.

I wish i could be as thin as jessica simpson. i think she looks gorgeous! i have had jessica on my show several times, and i can tell you that girl is genuine and funny with a great self-deprecating sense of humor.
