More quotes by Annie Lennox

Image
I want to be true to who I am.
Annie Lennox
Image
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
Image
Those in the developing world have so few rights - we take a lot for granted in the developed world.
Annie Lennox
Image
I've never experienced chronic poverty, but I know what it's like to live on £3 a week.
Annie Lennox
Image
The worst thing someone gets is isolated. Isolation is the darkest part of any condition.
Annie Lennox
Image
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
Image
I don't think feminism is about the exclusion of men but their inclusion... we must face and address those issues, especially to include younger men and boys.
Annie Lennox
Image
If one woman is suffering, then we are all suffering, and we need to put a voice to that.
Annie Lennox
Image
I enjoy multi-tasking, so I want to do a lot of different things. I want to keep all the plates spinning.
Annie Lennox
Image
Every artist has to make their own statements and they have to live with them.
Annie Lennox
Image
Everything is illusory. You cannot label something and feel that that is the beginning, middle, and end of it.
Annie Lennox
Image
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
Image
When women get together as a group, it is immensely powerful.
Annie Lennox
Image
Medicine comes with hope: the hope of having a healthy child, the hope of being able to raise your family.
Annie Lennox
Image
The music scene in the '70s was like the United Kingdom in the '70s - we had a lot of unemployment, we had inflation, we had a lot of strikes going on, on a national scale, and a lot of discontent. That was reflected in the music.
Annie Lennox
Image
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
Image
We all come from women, and there's something extraordinary about the mothers who raised us.
Annie Lennox
Image
In memory, you can access something from the past, anything that you've experienced that you remember - it's there. Now, you might have a memento of it in a photograph or in a film or a building or some clothes that you wore. There might be something that connects you to this memory. But all of us are just all caught in this time, whatever that is.

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

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.
