Martie Maguire Quotations

We won't as a band, and we probably won't on the stage. But we will feel free to give our opinion in our personal lives. And we've always answered questions when people ask us, so we will not be afraid of that.

We know some of our fans were shocked and ... upset. I totally understand it. My problem is, when does it cross the line? When is trashing Emily's property OK? When is writing a threatening letter OK?

You guys are going to be inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, ... What an honor.

It's the people who have gone overboard and done such irrational things that take you back to the days of book burning. That is a concern for me,

I liked a lot of alternative and I like punk stuff.

I have a hidden wild side, and the older I get the more it comes out.

The thing I like about our fans is that they are smart, they are good-looking and we can agree to disagree

I'd rather have a smaller following of really cool people who get it, who will grow with us as we grow and are fans for life, than people that have us in their five-disc changer with Reba McEntire and Toby Keith. We don't want those kinds of fans. They limit what you can do.

Sorry to take your award, Faith ... Everybody knows that it's really not about the numbers and the chart positions and the sales and all that stuff, it's about relationships and my two best friends are at home ... I know you're as excited as I am ...
