I'm not really keen on comebacks. Eurythmics was an incredible thing. When I look back on that work, I feel very satisfied with it.

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
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.
Annie Lennox
If you want to open a supermarket chain and put your face all around the globe, selling your baby and your dog, if it makes you happy, who am I to disagree, as the song goes. But it's not for me. I've always tried to keep my integrity and keep my autonomy.
Annie Lennox
You're never quite sure where the song is going, because you might not find the word to rhyme with the end of the line. You have to find associative meaning to get you there. So it's rather like doing a crossword puzzle backwards. A kind of strange, three-dimensional, abstract crossword puzzle.
Annie Lennox
I wouldn't say that I've mellowed. I'm less mellow, perhaps.
Annie Lennox
We all come from women, and there's something extraordinary about the mothers who raised us.
Annie Lennox
I'm not a risk taker physically. I just have no interest in swinging myself off a mountaintop or parachute gliding or skiing down a totally vertical drop. These things don't interest me in the slightest, but I get so caught up in the color or the texture of the sounds of something. That's so funny to me.
Annie Lennox
Desire, despair, desire. So many monsters.
Annie Lennox
I have a lot to be grateful for.
Annie Lennox
Twerking is not feminism. Thats what I’m referring to. It’s not — it’s not liberating, it’s not empowering. It’s a sexual thing that you’re doing on a stage it doesn’t empower you. That’s my feeling about it.
Annie Lennox
One realizes after a long time that, actually, we are contradictory, all of us.
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
You have a bigger view, of something bigger than you, and you have to view that and take that in mind. At times you feel like despair rises up over hope, then other times you feel hopeful again.
Annie Lennox
I don't take myself as seriously as some people think, and I'd hate anyone to think I was preaching. That's the last thing I want.
Annie Lennox
I've never experienced chronic poverty, but I know what it's like to live on £3 a week.
Annie Lennox
There's always darkness around, and if you focus on the darkness, you don't know where to go. But if you direct yourself at the light - there it is! It's right there.
Annie Lennox
I don't have any interest to go to Israel. I don't think I'd ever have a cause to go.
Annie Lennox
Fame for fame's sake is toxic - some people want that, with no boundaries. It's unhealthy.
Annie Lennox
I didn't want to be perceived as a girly girl on stage.
Annie Lennox
I've thought about what is an alternative word to feminism. There isn't one. It's a perfectly good word. And it can't be changed.
Annie Lennox
