More quotes by Annie Lennox
Pop stars are so busy having a career that they don't really have a lot of time for activism.
Annie Lennox
I also started writing songs because I had this burning activity in my heart and had to express myself.
Annie Lennox
I don't have clear-cut positions. I get baffled by things. I have viewpoints. Sometimes they change.
Annie Lennox
Women's issues have always been a part of my life. My goal is to bring the word 'feminism' back into the zeitgeist and reframe it.
Annie Lennox
What's really interesting is when you get a brand-new wave that has no connection to anything else. It always reflects society. The flappers would cut the dresses and make them looser, they smoked, their hair was short. It was a rebellion against the corset and the Edwardian era.
Annie Lennox
It's a very telling thing when you have children. You have to be there for them, you've got to set an example, when you're not sure what your example is, and anyway the world is changing so fast you don't know what is appropriate anymore.
Annie Lennox
I was brought up in a tenement house in a working district. We didn't even have a bathroom! We had a gaslight in the hallway and a black-and-white TV.
Annie Lennox
Music is a great vehicle for communications, and I have a certain platform. I have an opportunity and I have to take it.
Annie Lennox
I've never experienced chronic poverty, but I know what it's like to live on £3 a week.
Annie Lennox
I want to be true to who I am.
Annie Lennox
Most women are dissatisfied with their appearance - it's the stuff that fuels the beauty and fashion industries.
Annie Lennox
We think that this is just our world and we don't know what other people are thinking. Music actually is a phenomenal connector in that respect. It's a special language that defines certain boundaries and connects people in a particular way, a very emotional way, I have found.
Annie Lennox
If you do nothing, if a mother doesn't come for care, if she breastfeeds her baby, the chances of the baby getting HIV are about 40%. So it's about the difference between 40% and zero. This is almost totally preventable. But it requires mothers coming for care and getting the medicines they need, and getting the education and support they need.
Annie Lennox
The momentum of time is always going forward. You cannot repeat what has been done before. You can't go back.
Annie Lennox
The future hasn't happened yet and the past is gone. So I think the only moment we have is right here and now, and I try to make the best of those moments, the moments that I'm in.
Annie Lennox
I was born in 1954. My parents were brought up in the war years, and life was hard.
Annie Lennox
For me, pointing and clicking my phone is absolutely fine. People say that isn't the art of photography but I don't agree.
Annie Lennox
Men need to understand, and women too, what feminism is really about.
Annie Lennox
You have to face things, have faith in what you do and go for it. Think, 'What's the worst that could happen?'
Annie Lennox
Success breeds the excitement to continue going.
