More quotes by 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 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
If the entire week is a battlefield, reading the Bible is sort of like that parachute with the box of reserves that come in the middle of the war: food and water and the toothbrush and toilet paper.
Lauryn Hill
Who you going to tell when the repercussions spin, showing off your ass because you think it's a trend.
Lauryn Hill
You could get the money, you can get the power, but keep your eyes on the final hour.
Lauryn Hill
The sweetest thing I've ever known was like the kiss on the collarbone.
Lauryn Hill

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
I get out, I get out of all your boxes. I get out, you can't hold me in these chains. I'll get out. Father free me from this bondage. Knowin' my condition is the reason I must change
Lauryn Hill
I love being able to reach people directly, but in an ideal scenario, I would not have to rush the release of new music… but the message is still there.
Lauryn Hill
I went to Jamaica for six months, and in Jamaica there was a lot of stillness.
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
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
Reality is easy. It's deception that's the hard work.
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
I am just beginning to be more comfortable with my identity.
Lauryn Hill
Never underestimate those who you scar.
