More quotes by 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
A friend once said, and I found to be true,That everyday people, they lie to God too,So what makes you think, that they won't lie to you.
Lauryn Hill
The less I have, the freer I am to do whatever I want to do.
Lauryn Hill
From the time that you are a child, you grow up repressing yourself.
Lauryn Hill
Everything takes place in a season. There was a season when that's all I did was listen to the music. Now I'm just in a place where I don't listen, I create. And if I do listen there are specific things that I listen to, and for specific reasons.

I was hopeless, now I'm on Hope Road.

For the past several years, I have remained what others would consider underground. I did this in order to build a community of people, like-minded in their desire for freedom and the right to pursue their goals and lives without being manipulated and controlled by a media protected military industrial complex with a completely different agenda.
Lauryn Hill
I believe God will make a way.

Lauryn Hill
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
I was very active. I was always all over the place trying to do a million things, just into this activity. If you asked me when I was 14 what I wanted to be: Activist, first, is my occupation. I am an activist.
Lauryn Hill
We have to make sure the music and the message and the words and all the elements come through in our songs and every time we appear in public.
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
When I have a creative insight, there is a high. I think back in the day, I made music as much as I did because it made me feel so good. I think you could argue that there is a creative addiction - but, you know, the healthy kind.
Lauryn Hill
Everyone is in the same situation, at different levels and in different places.
Lauryn Hill
I like a brother that cuts to the chase.
Lauryn Hill
You might win some, but you just lost one.
Lauryn Hill
In my family, there was not an abundance of wealth, but there was an abundance of love. So there was always humor, and there was joy and there was comfort and there was this environment just to have a good time.
Lauryn Hill
