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
Image
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

Image
Let optimists rule the world.
Lauryn Hill
Image
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.

The sweetest thing I've ever known was like the kiss on the collarbone.
Lauryn Hill
Image
In my travels all over the world, I have come to realize that what distinguishes one child from another is not ability, but access. Access to education, access to opportunity, access to love.

I do support artists standing by their beliefs, and walking with integrity. We have to find a better way to commercially exploit music, while giving artists their proper respect. This cannot be done while taking their contributions for granted, or trying to control the scope of their growth and power through threats and fear tactics.

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

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

My parents had a love for music. There were so many records, so much music constantly being played. My mother played piano, my father sang, and we were always surrounded in music.
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 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.

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