More quotes by Annie Lennox
I sang a lot as a little girl and entered competitions. I loved singing in choirs, but it was as I got older that I really found my voice.
Annie Lennox
I'm not a saint. I'm not an angel. I'm a human being.
Annie Lennox
I guess what I'm passionate about is, I see so many things that I find that there's no real solution to, and you're only here for such a brief moment in time, even if you live to be a hundred years old. Yet, what happens within that time frame? So many things happen.
Annie Lennox
The worst thing someone gets is isolated. Isolation is the darkest part of any condition. You can live with almost any condition if you're living within a community of people who can share a common understanding. We create these communities from women who share common conditions, and those mothers carry each other through.
Annie Lennox
I'm passionate about everything, actually. I'm passionate about life.
Annie Lennox
In the States, the HIV transmission from mother to child is almost completely preventable - the only mothers who really do transmit it are the ones who don't come in for care. If a mother in the United States or in Europe or in the UK comes to care and gets her medicines, she will have an HIV negative baby. Most people don't know that.
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
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
There needs to be a shift in consciousness there needs to be an absolute wake-up call before society can actually make the kind of incredibly significant changes that need to happen.
Annie Lennox
In a way, it's all down to perception, isn't it? And everyone has their own take on everything.
Annie Lennox
The contrast of the world that we live in and the world that is here in Aspen and the world inhabited by women who have no resources, little or no, very few resources - huge disparity.
Annie Lennox
Whatever you do, you do out of a passion.
Annie Lennox
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.
Annie Lennox
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
I think music is the most phenomenal platform for intellectual thought.
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
I think life on the road really suits very egotistical men. It's set up for kings.
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
The dynamic between two individuals starts off with everything warm and nice and fabulous and good. Working and living together can serve you quite well, but when it starts to go wrong - oh, boy!
Annie Lennox
As a creative person, you just put something out into the consciousness of the society you live in.
