I don't need anybody to market or promote me. If people don't want to hear this music, then it's not for them. You cannot please everybody.

More quotes by Lauryn Hill
Our podium is the music. It's really important that we stay focused, because things become misconstrued in the media.
Lauryn Hill
I am no longer going to become a fictional character to please people. That's too much work.
Lauryn Hill
I wrote these words for everyone who struggles in their youth. Who won't accept deception instead of what is truth. It seems we lose the game, before we even start to play. Who made these rules? We're so confused. Easily led astray.
Lauryn Hill
As musicians and artists, it's important we have an environment - and I guess when I say environment, I really mean the industry, that really nurtures these gifts. Oftentimes, the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society.
Lauryn Hill
As painful as this thing has been I just can't be with no one else. See I know what we've got to do. You let go, and I'll let go too. 'Cause no one's hurt me more than you And no one ever will.
Lauryn Hill
I am just beginning to be more comfortable with my identity.
Lauryn Hill
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?
Lauryn Hill
Let me be patient, let me be kind, make me unselfish, without being blind.
Lauryn Hill
How you gon' win when you ain't right within. Uh uh come again
Lauryn Hill
I know you don't wanna hear my opinion, There come many paths and you must choose one. And if you don't change then the rain soon come. See, you might win some, but you just lost one.
Lauryn Hill
We have these images, these icons before us that are not reality.
Lauryn Hill
I play my enemies like a game of chess
Lauryn Hill
We think the man with the best rap will protect and save us, but it's not usually that way. Love is something deeper and purer.
Lauryn Hill
I tried to manipulate and control people, and I harbored resentment. I wanted to be forgiven, but I wouldn't forgive others.
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
Everyone is in the same situation, at different levels and in different places.
Lauryn Hill
If I should fall asleep and death takes me away, Don't be surprised son, I wasn't put here to stay.
Lauryn Hill
If you love something and if you're committed and diligent - the things happen!
Lauryn Hill
We were all crazy about music and almost all the money we had, we spent for equipment.
Lauryn Hill
My concept of successful living is escaping the matrix, as we've talked about. It has very little to do with what people think success is. I actually feel successful right now, even though I don't have an album out, or a video or a song on the radio, because I'm trying to be obedient to His will.
