More quotes by Lauryn Hill
When you're young and everything dramatic is exciting, you start to believe that hype that, in order to be an artist, you have to suffer. I've graduated from that school.
Lauryn Hill
Nobody's going to force me to do something against my will. What do I owe anybody that I should submit my will to them?
Lauryn Hill
Now I may have faith/ to make mountains fall/ But if I lack love/ then I am nothin' at all
Lauryn Hill
The only way to know is to Live, Learn, and Grow

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.

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.
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
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 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
I tried to manipulate and control people, and I harbored resentment. I wanted to be forgiven, but I wouldn't forgive others.
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
Everyone is in the same situation, at different levels and in different places.
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
I don't know anybody that's not emotionally unstable or schizophrenic.
Lauryn Hill
It's more important to be righteous than to be right.
