When women get together as a group, it is immensely powerful.
Annie Lennox
Image
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.

Men need to understand, and women too, what feminism is really about.
Annie Lennox
Image
Desire, despair, desire. So many monsters.

I'm from a working-class background, and I've experienced that worry of not having a job next week because the unions are going on strike.

When you're that successful, things have a momentum, and at a certain point you can't really tell whether you have created the momentum or it's creating you.
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
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
Image
Medicine comes with hope: the hope of having a healthy child, the hope of being able to raise your family.
Annie Lennox
Image
If you want to open a supermarket chain and put your face all around the globe, selling your baby and your dog, if it makes you happy, who am I to disagree, as the song goes. But it's not for me. I've always tried to keep my integrity and keep my autonomy.
Annie Lennox
Image
I have a lot to be grateful for.
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.
