Most women are dissatisfied with their appearance - it's the stuff that fuels the beauty and fashion industries.
Annie Lennox
Image
Men need to understand, and women too, what feminism is really about.
Annie Lennox
Image
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
It's hard to tell how far women's individuality has come in the past twenty years.
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.

If people like your music, you can't guarantee they're going to love you.
Annie Lennox

Everything is illusory. You cannot label something and feel that that is the beginning, middle, and end of it.
Annie Lennox
Image
I'm not intensely private - I talk a great deal about my life and my work - I just don't play the game to excess.
Annie Lennox

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.
Annie Lennox
Image
I think life on the road really suits very egotistical men. It's set up for kings.
Annie Lennox
Image
If we value what we've inherited for free - from other women - surely it's right morally and ethically for us to wake up and say, 'I'm a feminist. '
Annie Lennox
Image
The music industry has always been a beast, which would eat you up and spit you out.
Annie Lennox
Image
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
Image
I'm passionate about everything, actually. I'm passionate about life.
Annie Lennox
Image
Every artist has to make their own statements and they have to live with them.
Annie Lennox
Image
The very fact that the planet is probably unsustainable with all that we've done to it and are doing to it, it's an appalling piece of evidence. It shows our complacency, our lack of passion or inclination to be authentic and really understand our true values. It's consistently depressing, but nevertheless, we carry on.
Annie Lennox
Image
As a creative person, you just put something out into the consciousness of the society you live in.
Annie Lennox
Image
Why are we not valuing the word 'feminism' when there is so much work to be done in terms of empowerment and emancipation of women everywhere?

Medicine comes with hope: the hope of having a healthy child, the hope of being able to raise your family.
