I wasn't trying to be a role model for anybody. I don't think that you can.
Annie Lennox
Image
I think life on the road really suits very egotistical men. It's set up for kings.
Annie Lennox

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.

You're never quite sure where the song is going, because you might not find the word to rhyme with the end of the line. You have to find associative meaning to get you there. So it's rather like doing a crossword puzzle backwards. A kind of strange, three-dimensional, abstract crossword puzzle.
Annie Lennox

Annie Lennox
Image
I have a reputation for being cold and aloof, but I'm so not that woman. I'm passionate. I love my girls, being with my girlfriends, getting involved with issues that affect other women and children who are suffering.
Annie Lennox
Image
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.
Annie Lennox
Image
I stand on the shoulders of giants that have gone before me, in terms of affording people like myself, women, the access to democracy, the vote, medical treatment, education, everything that I've been given. It's all been earned.
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'm not particularly attention-seeking.
Annie Lennox
Image
I didn't want to be a Barbie doll. I didn't want to be a passive entertainer. It wasn't how I wanted to present myself.
Annie Lennox
Image
Every artist has to make their own statements and they have to live with them.
Annie Lennox
Image
Dying is easy, it's living that scares me to death.
Annie Lennox
Image
One realizes after a long time that, actually, we are contradictory, all of us.
Annie Lennox
Image
There needs to be a shift in consciousness there needs to be an absolute wake-up call before society can actually make the kind of incredibly significant changes that need to happen.
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
I was never much of a one to win prizes... and certainly never placed too much value on their acquisition.
Annie Lennox
Image
I chose a career in obstetrics and gynecology because there's something about honoring women, honoring the birth process. We all come from women, and there's something extraordinary about the mothers who raised us.
