We get notes sent to us backstage from college students that say, 'My parents used to play your albums all the time! I grew up with you, and I love the new stuff.'

It's the ultimate compliment to be imitated or at least be somebody's influence, for sure.

We're not just 'ladies in rock.' We're weird people!

We've been around for awhile, had a lot of success. Got a chance to sit around and go, 'Oh, yeah, we're pretty good.'

I like playing. Guitar... on a loud rock stage... with colored lights. Everything sounds better with colored lights!

I always have dogs with me, even on the road. We call them port-o-pups.

When you're in your twenties, your brain hasn't even finished baking, and your hormones are giving you all kinds of direction of which ways to go.

My favorite acoustic is the Nancy Wilson Signature Martin.

Sleazy people are always in this business. They run the business, pretty much. There are a lot of barracudas.

A dream set would include songs by other artists like Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, and other favorites. More obscure Heart songs like 'Wait For an Answer' and 'Nada One' would be fun, plus fan favorites like 'Love Mistake' and 'Language of Love.' Endless possibilities.

With 'Brigade,' we sort of decided to kind of revamp ourselves and put on the military garb and become more of a fighting unit, you know, like the title of the album, and sort of fight for it.

I've been through a lot of heartache in my day, and you turn to music to prop yourself up. It's a healing thing, and it's a powerful, powerful, beautiful thing.

One night, I remember being really sick in bed with chills and a fever when Ann came in all excited and said, 'I have these lyrics! Let me read them to you!' They were the lyrics to 'Crazy on You,' and in my fever haze I said, 'Yeah! Those are really good!'

We were wild-eyed hippies from the late '60s. We still had the exuberance of the mind-expanding '60s - that Tolkienesque, Zeppelin, androgynous, wood nymph, forest fairy kind of innocence. It sounds stupid now, but we felt we were changing the world with music.

We really had boundless optimism about the place of music in the culture - and in the world.

I really love singing. I love singing harmony, mostly.

We've never been as active politically as we have been as artists. But politics always brush up against the arts, oh, about every four years in this country.

I saw Led Zeppelin live for the first time when I was thirteen.

Being mothers, we try to stay home as much as possible and attend to the children.

I play a lot of classical music around the house.

I know, in so many cases, a lot of the women who came up through the singer-songwriter, Lilith Fair era, the earlier Lilith Fair era, did say that we were influences on them.

We always had a lot of admiration for feminists who were out there trying to change things for the better for women, who were trying to find equality in the workplace and at home.

We're trying to elevate humanity and not preach to humanity in the way we approach our art. We're always just trying to get a good party going.

There's nothing quite as raw and honest as one person and one instrument.
