More quotes by Lauryn Hill
Love and this close-knit family structure really helped to give me the confidence. To know that you have family to go back to is a help. It doesn't always happen biologically. Sometimes God gives you family in other forms, but I was very blessed. I have a very strong biological family.
Lauryn Hill
Reality is easy. It's deception that's the hard work.
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
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
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.
Lauryn Hill
Tell me who I've got to be, to get some reciprocity
Lauryn Hill
I am no longer going to become a fictional character to please people. That's too much work.
Lauryn Hill
I rarely listen to the music for the sheer pleasure. I'm listening for the tool, I'm listening for the instrument, I'm listening for the art.
Lauryn Hill
As artists, we have an opportunity to help the public evolve, raise consciousness and awareness, teach, heal, enlighten and inspire in ways the democratic process may not be able to touch. So we keep it moving.
Lauryn Hill
We've got to protect the music and make sure it never gets exploited.
Lauryn Hill
Every time truth comes we hate it, because it's coming against our ego. Are you going to let the ego come between you and this person you love?
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.
Lauryn Hill
It could all be so simple, but you'd rather make it hard, loving you is like a battle, and we both end up with scars
Lauryn Hill
Let me break it down for you again, You know I only say it because I'm truly genuine: Don't be a hard rock when you really are a gem.
Lauryn Hill
We have these images, these icons before us that are not reality.
Lauryn Hill
My mother has all my awards, because if I walked downstairs every day and saw all my achievements it would be so easy to become complacent.
Lauryn Hill
Hypocrites always wanna play innocent
Lauryn Hill
Nobody's going to force me to do something against my will. What do I owe anybody that I should submit my will to them?
Lauryn Hill
I do support artists standing by their beliefs, and walking with integrity. We have to find a better way to commercially exploit music, while giving artists their proper respect. This cannot be done while taking their contributions for granted, or trying to control the scope of their growth and power through threats and fear tactics.
Lauryn Hill
Let’s love ourselves, then we can’t fail, To make a better situation. Tomorrow, our seeds will grow, All we need is dedication!
Lauryn Hill
