I enjoy multi-tasking, so I want to do a lot of different things. I want to keep all the plates spinning.

In a sense, the music business and I haven't always been the best of bedfellows. Artists often have to fight their corner. Your music goes through these filters of record labels and media, and you're hoping you'll find someone who'll help you get your work into the world.
Annie Lennox
Image
I would say that although my music may be or may have been part of the cultural background fabric of the gay community, I consider myself an outsider who belongs everywhere and nowhere... Being a human being is what truly counts. That's where you'll find me.
Annie Lennox
Image
I didn't want to be perceived as a girly girl on stage.
Annie Lennox
Image
People ask me so many questions.
Annie Lennox
Image
Please don't ask me for the actual answer to anything, because I don't have it. Because all I do is look at stuff and ask questions. What can I say? I just think the world's barking mad. Look, I'm not an expert. I'm just an ordinary person.
Annie Lennox

You have to be quite grounded, and I don't know what that is. Sometimes, that means being vulnerable.
Annie Lennox
Image
To be labeled as a strong woman when you feel vulnerable is a strange place to be, because then you're, like, Oh, I have to be strong now. But I don't feel strong. I feel alienated. I feel isolated. I feel that things are very surreal, and they're not authentic, and this is all just very overwhelming.
Annie Lennox

To be human is to have a whole spectrum of these experiences that arise within us.
Annie Lennox
Image
I wanted to create something that was quite edgy and belonged to me. It wasn't about my sexual orientation, because I'm heterosexual. It was saying that appearance is just temporary, and I want to be as strong as a man.
Annie Lennox
Image
If one woman is suffering, then we are all suffering, and we need to put a voice to that.
Annie Lennox
Image
Although I have lived in London, I have never really considered London my home because it was always going to be a stopping-off point for me, and it has been too.
Annie Lennox
Image
We are not consistent. We have both these dark sides and some light as well.
Annie Lennox
Image
As you get older, there will be a new challenge arising. What you thought you'd accomplished once, maybe the goal post has shifted and it's not what you're pursuing anymore, because you're not interested in that anymore, you know?
Annie Lennox
Image
I don't feel there are enough women artists out there who are saying anything of tremendous relevance.
Annie Lennox
Image
I was never much of a one to win prizes... and certainly never placed too much value on their acquisition.
Annie Lennox
Image
I watch 'Mad Men,' I knit scarves, I cook and am very, very normal. Honestly.
Annie Lennox
Image
I wouldn't say that I've mellowed. I'm less mellow, perhaps.
Annie Lennox
Image
Fear paralyses you - fear of flying, fear of the future, fear of leaving a rubbish marriage, fear of public speaking, or whatever it is.
Annie Lennox
Image
Bulnerable without strength is vulnerable, and being vulnerable means you can be victimized.
Annie Lennox

We all fight over what the label 'feminism' means but for me it's about empowerment. It's not about being more powerful than men - it's about having equal rights with protection, support, justice. It's about very basic things. It's not a badge like a fashion item.
