I think music is the most phenomenal platform for intellectual thought.

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.

Charity is a fine thing if it's meeting a gap where needs must be met and there are no other resources. But in the long term we need to support people into helping themselves.
Annie Lennox

I'm an only child, you know, originally. I'm not a child anymore, but I certainly tend to spend a lot of time on my own.
Annie Lennox
Image
I mean, I'm 48 years old and I've been through a lot in my life - you know, loss, whether it be death, illness, separation. I mean, the failed expectations... We all have dreams.
Annie Lennox

I think life on the road really suits very egotistical men. It's set up for kings.
Annie Lennox
Image
We are not consistent. We have both these dark sides and some light as well.

Money is a good thing and it's obviously useful, but to work only for money or fame would never interest me.
Annie Lennox

Pop stars are so busy having a career that they don't really have a lot of time for activism.
Annie Lennox

I watch 'Mad Men,' I knit scarves, I cook and am very, very normal. Honestly.

I find beauty in a very independent state. It lives quietly. It's there to be discovered.

If one woman is suffering, then we are all suffering, and we need to put a voice to that.
