Green is a label for a certain attitude to life, a certain kind of respect that one might have for the very source of things that we take for granted.
Annie Lennox
Image
A lot of music you might listen to is pretty vapid, it doesn't always deal with our deeper issues. These are the things I'm interested in now, particularly at my age.
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

Ask yourself: Have you been kind today? Make kindness your daily modus operandi and change your world.

Imagine living in abject poverty and not knowing anything other than that for generations. Or alternatively, imagine being born into a really wealthy family, but there was no real love. Everyone's living these extraordinary, interesting lives whether they know it or not.

I had a number of different labels. A lot of people assumed I was gay because I was wearing a man's suit, and one had to learn that it's OK, people will do that, and you don't always have to explain it one hundred percent, because they're never going to accept what your own interpretation is. It's all illusory.

Feminism is a word that I identify with. The term has become synonymous with vitriolic man-hating but it needs to come back to a place where both men and women can embrace it. It is particularly important for women in developing countries.

HIV/AIDS has no boundaries.

It's not fair to compare one artist to another because they all come with their own sort of elements to the picnic, you know.
Annie Lennox
Image
I think that you can only be true to yourself. Nobody can live up to other people's expectations. You will always let them down. There will always be something they won't like about you.
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
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 want to be owned by a corporation and obliged to make a certain type of album. I want to be free.
Annie Lennox
Image
I have different hats I'm a mother, I'm a woman, I'm a human being, I'm an artist and hopefully I'm an advocate. All of those plates are things I spin all the time.
Annie Lennox

It's harder to get out of bed when you've failed.

The person who inspired me the most was a friend of mine, Anita Roddick. I know that Anita wasn't known to be an ardent feminist, but she truly was.

I understand what it is for a woman to want to protect their children and give them the best they can.

I want to be true to who I am.
