More quotes by 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
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
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
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
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
The less I have, the freer I am to do whatever I want to do.
Lauryn Hill
I wouldn't even hold my kids sometimes because I didn't want them to spit up on me when I was dressed for an awards show.
Lauryn Hill
What was freely given to me, I freely give.
Lauryn Hill
Never underestimate those who you scar.
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
This life is a process of learning.
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
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
That strong mother doesn't tell her cub, Son, stay weak so the wolves can get you. She says, Toughen up, this is reality we are living in.
Lauryn Hill
Who you going to tell when the repercussions spin, showing off your ass because you think it's a trend.
Lauryn Hill
I try not to have a day pass where I don't read something from the Bible. It's like my sustenance to me.
Lauryn Hill
To me that's a reflection of love, when someone can see you enjoying yourself, and want to participate, or want to encourage, or want to help you to do something that you enjoy.
Lauryn Hill
I am just beginning to be more comfortable with my identity.
Lauryn Hill
God surrounded me with the right team, with the team that I needed to help me exercise all of my ideas. You need that. You need that army, you need that force.
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
