More quotes by Lauryn Hill
I think the work ethic that was established in my family was something very important. If you plant the seed, if you sow sparingly and reap sparingly. If you sow in abundance you'll reap in abundance.
Lauryn Hill
I'm trying to be a loving and caring mother, a loving and caring wife-to-be, a loving and caring daughter, a loving and caring friend, a responsible person. And every day is another opportunity for me to be successful at that.
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.

It's funny how money change a situation.

I ran very fast in the wrong direction.
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.

I sit here before you trying to figure out how to pay a tax debt? If that's not like enough to slavery, I don't know.

I had to confront my fears and master my every demonic thought about inferiority, insecurity, or the fear of being black, young, and gifted in this Western culture.
Lauryn Hill
Who you going to tell when the repercussions spin, showing off your ass because you think it's a trend.
Lauryn Hill
Never be afraid of not knowing. Find out.
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
You could get the money, you can get the power, but keep your eyes on the final hour.
Lauryn Hill
I don't want to be religious, I want to be spiritual. Anybody can be religious. Some people jog religiously. You don't want to be that, you want to be spiritual. You want to have a relationship with God as opposed to doing what everyone else does.
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
I don't know anybody that's not emotionally unstable or schizophrenic.
Lauryn Hill
Every time that God navigates my ship, there's nothing cerebral going on. There's very little thought. It's almost as if I have the directions. Every time I try to do it myself, I'm conjuring up my own concoction and trying.

Hip-Hop started out in the heart
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.

I need to be surrounded by people as passionate and as dedicated as I am.
