More quotes by Lenny Kravitz
I was taught by my grandfather that anything that your mind can conceive, you can have. It's a reality.
Lenny Kravitz
I'm always sort of reflecting on what I do on what I've done. Usually before I make a new album, I'll listen to the previous albums just to see where I've been.
Lenny Kravitz
I knew what I wanted to do from the time I was 5.
Lenny Kravitz
My dream is to become a farmer. Just a Bohemian guy pulling up his own sweet potatoes for dinner.
Lenny Kravitz
At first people thought I was really arrogant and a snob about music because I'm so intense about my production and sound, and because they knew I didn't like new music so much.
Lenny Kravitz
I don't play the tuba.
Lenny Kravitz
For me a watch is a really beautiful instrument. I don't so much care what time it is but I do love watches, and I love how they're constructed.
Lenny Kravitz
Working with Gabby [Sidibe], I realized immediately that she was amazingly talented. I could tell just by the way she'd get into the role.
Lenny Kravitz
I'm sure at one point I will do some acting again, but it would have to be the right thing. I'm not going to do it just because people are offering it to me. Not for those box-office, bullshit, money, noncreative people. But I'll do it when it's right to do it.
Lenny Kravitz
I want to get away, I want to fly away. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Lenny Kravitz
I think kids in Europe have developed a deeper knowledge of music and of black music in particular. You go to Europe, and these kids know about all this obscure funk and soul that kids over here wouldn't know. I think it's getting better in the States, though, with the age of the Internet.
Lenny Kravitz
Oasis are not just influenced by the Beatles they actually take stuff. Then they get praised.
Lenny Kravitz
I have a great time with my band and on the stage we get along well.
Lenny Kravitz
When it comes to acting, it's about creating a character and bringing forth a director's vision. It's a weird feeling, because with acting, it's just not about me. I love being in that position, because with the music, it's always about me.
Lenny Kravitz
If you listen to a lot of old funk records, the drums are really small. But you don't perceive it like that because the groove is so heavy.
Lenny Kravitz
I'm definitely happy with everything I've done. I stand behind it. You'll always be saying, Well, I could change that, or I would do that differently. But you have to let it be what it is.
Lenny Kravitz
I come in with this rock 'n' roll-oriented music, and it's not black enough . . . I've always had to deal with this black-white thing.
Lenny Kravitz
People don't realize it, but no one lives that rock and roll life 24-7. They think it's hundreds of bottles of champagne flowing and private jets and money. But there's a lot of time when you're traveling - time to think, time to be lonely. Sometimes it gets to you.
Lenny Kravitz
I mean, look at the people we celebrate - a lot of people who really don't do anything. They just walk the red carpets and go to all the parties, and they're hooked up with the right people, so they're celebrities. But what for?
Lenny Kravitz
The image that the public gets is whatever they perceive it to be. Everybody has an opinion, everybody has their own vision, so I don't know what my public image is. I have no idea.
