More quotes by Annie Lennox
It was very easy for me to dedicate myself to the care of mothers, help them have healthy babies, help them be healthy, help them in a place where they don't have opportunities. Success breeds the excitement to continue going. It's harder to get out of bed when you've failed.
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.
Annie Lennox
When you get to be nearly 60, you do take stock. You don't know what's around the corner.
Annie Lennox
Over the years, I was never really driven to become a solo artist, but I was curious to find out who I was as an individual creative person. It's taken some time, but now I feel I've truly paid my dues. I guess I'm at a point now where I'm more comfortable in my own skin.
Annie Lennox
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
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
Desire, despair, desire. So many monsters.
Annie Lennox
Such is the scale and depth of poverty in many parts of the world that it won't be ended overnight. That is why if, like me, you want to see an end to poverty, you need to be in it for the long haul.
Annie Lennox
This is the book I never read ~ These are the words I never said ~ This is the path I'll never tread ~ These are the dreams I'll dream instead
Annie Lennox
Fundamentally, we are all in the same place: we're born, we live, and we're going to die. In between, we'll have joy and we'll have sadness.
Annie Lennox
The worst thing someone gets is isolated. Isolation is the darkest part of any condition.
Annie Lennox
We all come from women, and there's something extraordinary about the mothers who raised us.
Annie Lennox
There is a big difference between what I do onstage and what I do in my private life. I don't put my living room on magazine pages.
Annie Lennox
To try to help people have babies in a healthy way and to celebrate the process of delivering a child which will be healthy is, I think, almost the best part of healthcare.
Annie Lennox
Fame for fame's sake is toxic - some people want that, with no boundaries. It's unhealthy.
Annie Lennox
Men need to understand, and women too, what feminism is really about.
Annie Lennox
I'm passionate about everything, actually. I'm passionate about life.
Annie Lennox
I played with the image, because I think image is temporary. It's a projection. It's illusory.
Annie Lennox
I used to be obsessed about how I presented myself. I didn't want other people dressing me because I didn't want to be treated like a clothes horse.
Annie Lennox
You know, I would say that songwriting is something about the expression of the heart, the intellect and the soul.
Annie Lennox
