More quotes by Annie Lennox
I wasn't trying to be a role model for anybody. I don't think that you can.
Annie Lennox
I've had my share of dark days of the soul. I try not to focus on it too much so it doesn't get to me.
Annie Lennox
Fame for fame's sake is toxic - some people want that, with no boundaries. It's unhealthy.
Annie Lennox
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.
Annie Lennox
Those in the developing world have so few rights - we take a lot for granted in the developed world.
Annie Lennox
The music scene in the '70s was like the United Kingdom in the '70s - we had a lot of unemployment, we had inflation, we had a lot of strikes going on, on a national scale, and a lot of discontent. That was reflected in the music.
Annie Lennox
My first understanding of HIV and AIDS was like everybody else from my generation. In the mid-'80s, we heard about this, and it was terrifying, because we knew nothing about how to respond to it appropriately, and we didn't really understand about how the virus is passed. There was a lot of misconception about that.
Annie Lennox
I love to make music and stay grounded.
Annie Lennox
If one woman is suffering, then we are all suffering, and we need to put a voice to that.
Annie Lennox
Although I have lived in London, I have never really considered London my home because it was always going to be a stopping-off point for me, and it has been too.
Annie Lennox
I want people to understand me as a person with views, not just performing songs.
Annie Lennox
Desire, despair, desire. So many monsters.
Annie Lennox
When you get to be nearly 60, you do take stock. You don't know what's around the corner.
Annie Lennox
HIV/AIDS has no boundaries.
Annie Lennox
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
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
I also started writing songs because I had this burning activity in my heart and had to express myself.
Annie Lennox
The music industry has always been a beast, which would eat you up and spit you out.
Annie Lennox
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
If people like your music, you can't guarantee they're going to love you.
Annie Lennox
