More quotes by Lauryn Hill
In my travels all over the world, I have come to realize that what distinguishes one child from another is not ability, but access. Access to education, access to opportunity, access to love.
Lauryn Hill
The honor to me has less to do with the award. To me that translates in the relationship that I have with the audience, and if my music is helpful to them, that's the award.
Lauryn Hill
If the entire week is a battlefield, reading the Bible is sort of like that parachute with the box of reserves that come in the middle of the war: food and water and the toothbrush and toilet paper.
Lauryn Hill
Being young and female in America, you watch a lot of TV and you grow up on false images of what love truly is.
Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill
Every day is a lesson in focus for me, and not buying into the world's concept of what you have to be. I really try every day to be individual and not just in my style or my look or my music, but in my approach to life.
Lauryn Hill
Love is an incredible thing but we don't know love like we should. Unconditional love we don't know it because if a person stops stimulating us, we stop loving them.
Lauryn Hill
Over-commercialization and its resulting restrictions and limitations can be very damaging and distorting to the inherent nature of the individual. I did not deliberately abandon my fans, nor did I deliberately abandon any responsibilities.
Lauryn Hill
As long as I remember that the glory is His and not my own. When I confuse that, I get in trouble. We think that we glorify ourselves, and the object is to glorify God first, and in doing that you become glorified, you get glorified.
Lauryn Hill
We were all crazy about music and almost all the money we had, we spent for equipment.
Lauryn Hill
You might win some, but you just lost one.
Lauryn Hill
I went to Jamaica for six months, and in Jamaica there was a lot of stillness.
Lauryn Hill
It's more important to be righteous than to be right.
Lauryn Hill
Consequence is no coincidence.
Lauryn Hill
Everybody has a choice. I am not here to shove my light down everybody's throat. For those who don't want it, I have nothing to defend.

The only way to know is to Live, Learn, and Grow
Lauryn Hill
The sweetest thing I've ever known was like the kiss on the collarbone.

I'm making music for other people to listen to for pleasure. And hopefully, later on maybe they'll listen to it and go, That bass line, boy, did you hear the way those drums interacted with that?
