Our podium is the music. It's really important that we stay focused, because things become misconstrued in the media.

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
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
Anything that is not growing is dead.
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
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
We were all crazy about music and almost all the money we had, we spent for equipment.
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
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
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
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
Hip-Hop started out in the heart
Lauryn Hill
I hope that by people seeing the result of freedom that they'll want some, too.
Lauryn Hill
Tomorrow, our seeds will grow. All we need is dedication.
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
I don't need anybody to market or promote me. If people don't want to hear this music, then it's not for them. You cannot please everybody.
Lauryn Hill
Let me be patient, let me be kind, make me unselfish, without being blind.
Lauryn Hill
We've got to protect the music and make sure it never gets exploited.
Lauryn Hill
Tomorrow is always another day to make things right.
Lauryn Hill
I knew his life deserved a chance/But everybody told me to be smart/Look at your career they said/Lauren, baby use your head/But instead I chose to use my heart.
Lauryn Hill
