"Ironically, that was quite a bit of the appeal of Rumours. It's equally interesting on a musical level and as a soap opera."

"I had to seal off my feelings about Stevie while seeing her every day and having to help her, too. But you get on with it. What was happening to the band was much bigger than any of that."
Feelings
"I'm also married for the first time, and I have two kids. So there's some kind of good karma right now."
Time
"The 12 years I was in Fleetwood Mac before were not particularly happy years. I was not in a very good place, psychologically, when I left. I didn't have a lot of confidence in what I was doing."
Confidence
"Some days I would be there at ten in the morning and wouldn't leave till ten at night, and the others would waltz in for a couple of hours and then leave, because I was doing that painting thing. And they were happy to see that being done."
Being
"You know, I was never totally thrilled with being a Fleetwood Mac member, but surprisingly, I was having such a good time reuniting with John, Mick, and Stevie."
Time
"The writing is all done, so it's all about verbalizing everything from point A to point B, and certainly there's a bit of politics involved, so it's a different thing."
Politics
"That's one strength that Stevie has. She's really not a strong instrumentalist in any way. Her instrument is her voice and her words. And it keeps her focused on the very center of that."
Strength
"I just find things that work and embellish them."
Work
"It's really touching that we can come back after so long and care about making an album that says as much as this one does. And after all this time, we really do care about each other."
Time
"Those 12 years, they were ambiguous at best."
