More quotes by Annie Lennox
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
I only want to make music because I have a passion for it.
Annie Lennox
Music is an extraordinary vehicle for expressing emotion - very powerful emotions. That's what draws millions of people towards it. And, um, I found myself always going for these darker places and - people identify with that.

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.
Annie Lennox
It's harder to get out of bed when you've failed.
Annie Lennox
If one woman is suffering, then we are all suffering, and we need to put a voice to that.
Annie Lennox
I want to be true to who I am.
Annie Lennox
I think life on the road really suits very egotistical men. It's set up for kings.
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
Churches, depending on their policy, can do fantastic work with people in the community.
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
HIV/AIDS has no boundaries.
Annie Lennox
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
