More quotes by Annie Lennox
There's good stuff and bad stuff, but you continue on. I'm not prescriptive - I cannot tell anyone else what to do with their lives, and I'm a deeply flawed individual - but this is it. We're all just living it and... bless us all.
Annie Lennox
I was born in 1954. My parents were brought up in the war years, and life was hard.
Annie Lennox
We are not consistent. We have both these dark sides and some light as well.
Annie Lennox
I didn't want to be a Barbie doll. I didn't want to be a passive entertainer. It wasn't how I wanted to present myself.
Annie Lennox
I haven't lived my life through my daughters. Some parents devote everything to their children, which must be so hard, and it's very beautiful. But I'm a working parent, so I've always kept my own life.
Annie Lennox
One wouldn't want to have the same dilemmas at 50 as one had at 15. And indeed I don't. I have a very different take on life.
Annie Lennox
There is a big difference between what I do onstage and what I do in my private life. I don't put my living room on magazine pages.
Annie Lennox
There must be an angel, Playing with my heart. And when I think that I'm alone, It seems there's more of us at home...
Annie Lennox
I chose a career in obstetrics and gynecology because there's something about honoring women, honoring the birth process. We all come from women, and there's something extraordinary about the mothers who raised us.
Annie Lennox
I didn't want to be perceived as a girly girl on stage.
Annie Lennox
I have a lot to be grateful for.
Annie Lennox
Life is not quantifiable in terms of age, but I suppose in my fifties I am more grounded and more at ease in my own skin than when I was younger. I have a confidence that I didn't have before from the experiences I've had.
Annie Lennox
I get very frustrated when I hear women saying, Oh, feminism is passé, because I think feminism means empowerment. Men can be feminists, too! Many men are feminists. We need feminism. It's not against men it's about the empowerment of women. It's the respect of women - giving women equal rights, the same opportunities.
Annie Lennox
You become really ugly when you become very superficial and self-obsessed.
Annie Lennox
I like where I live here, in London.
Annie Lennox
I'm not intensely private - I talk a great deal about my life and my work - I just don't play the game to excess.
Annie Lennox
Money is a good thing and it's obviously useful, but to work only for money or fame would never interest me.
Annie Lennox
Desire, despair, desire. So many monsters.
Annie Lennox
I've never experienced chronic poverty, but I know what it's like to live on £3 a week.
Annie Lennox
The inner world is very potent for me - I don't ascribe to any God or Jesus or Buddha - I just have a sense of it and revere it along with the natural world and human consciousness.
Annie Lennox
