"We have been singing together since we were kids, so the progression from living-room hobby to professional career kind of felt natural. I think we both always knew that we would pursue music together."

"I still live in Beautiful B.C.! I love it here and you'd have to work pretty hard to get me to leave!"

"[Glen Campbell] was a wonderful man and he was so good to me. Every time that I ever asked him to do anything, he was here for me always."

"The climate in Sweden is rather the same as in Canada. It makes me feel at home."

"I was sitting in my suite one night after the show, and I looked out at the [Las Vegas] Strip and saw the huge neon billboard with my name on it, spelled out in those giant letters they use. Then I looked across the street at Caesars Palace and saw Frank Sinatra's name, in the same giant letters. And I said to myself, 'Face it, Anne; you're in the business.'"

"I hated my life when I was going through those early days and having to deal with drunken musicians and drugged musicians. I hated it."

"I guess that singing is probably a very selfish thing. I guess it doesn't matter what you do. It's selfish in a way 'cause there's satisfaction involved and so. As a singer, you sometimes have to justify your reason for existence in a sort of a way because: what really are you doing for people, they say?"

"What you saw was what you got. There was no difference from me on stage and me sitting here talking to you."

"That's something that I regret – that I allowed them to browbeat me into doing an album every year. Because when I took time out to have children I got behind in my albums. One year I had to do three in a row. The same year! Just to keep up with my contract with them. What a pile of bullshit that is."

"If you have a dream, a passion and have the opportunity to make it happen, great. BUT, if you can’t get to it right away, which is quite often the case, give the job you’re doing 100 per cent and keep your eyes open. You never know what opportunity might arise … something you never thought of could become your life’s work. Success of any kind is the result of hard work … there’s no shortcut."

"If you think asking for help betrays weakness, get over it. In fact, it’s just the opposite. It’s a sign that you’re confident enough to admit that other people may know more than you know or can do things better than you can."

"[Anne Murray] embodies the Canadian popular music industry. She's been so successful within Canada and internationally. She's really identified with Canada, even one of her songs Snowbird, that's so Canada."

"I've always had a crush on Anne Murray, since I was like 9 years old. But no, [Ingenue]'s not about her."

"You know what? When someone does that for me, it makes me feel really good. It's like you're important."

"I`ve been called just about everything, but I`ve always thought of myself as just a singer."

"I would never preach vegetarianism. It’s such a personal choice. It’s got to suit you, and be right for you: emotionally, spiritually and physically. If it’s working for you, that’s really great. … I definitely think there are some benefits. I know a lot of people that have had cancer, for example, and they’ll make a point of telling me, ‘The first thing my doctor told me to do was stop eating meat during this process.’ I think it’s interesting a doctor would suggest a vegetarian diet when you’re already sick. … I stick to a mixture of real raw, whole-food items every day. I make sure I’m eating greens every day, and nuts, and food that’s not processed. I do that every day."
