More quotes by Lenny Kravitz
The story that I wanna tell is pretty much about the way I grew up. Being bi-racial, growing up in a big city and being an artist.
Lenny Kravitz
I never sit down to write. When I'm moved, I do it. I just wait for it to come. You just hear it. I can't really describe writing. It's in my head.
Lenny Kravitz
I do my best to try to keep God with me on a personal level. It's my belief that God really wants a personal relationship with us.
Lenny Kravitz
I wanted to make something that sounded very pure, organic, and personal. I wanted to make music that was timeless.
Lenny Kravitz
You've got your entourage and people that help you make whatever happen around you. Everything's crazy and you're not paying attention to your inner feelings because you're so busy. I couldn't take it.
Lenny Kravitz
Mothers love you to the end, and she didn't want to hold me back from my livelihood. So I left for a month and called her every couple of days. I came home and she died 24 hours later.
Lenny Kravitz
I've been compared to hundreds of artists, which just goes to show you that I'm not any one thing at all.
Lenny Kravitz
Every night is different, you never know what it's going to be like. I remember every night. I don't like to compare them.
Lenny Kravitz
It's interesting to be playing a father who's on the other side because that's not my world and not where I came from.
Lenny Kravitz
We're beginning to play God and get into cloning. We give up quickly. Divorce is an easy option. So why not just create your own mate? Synthesize a human being. You get tired of it, turn it off and put it in the closet like the vacuum cleaner.
Lenny Kravitz
One musician listens to another musician, and you get inspired and then you do your thing, but it's yours.
Lenny Kravitz
I really didn't know a lot of rock 'n' roll until I moved to L.A. Before that, when I was in New York, I grew up listening mostly to R&B and soul and jazz.
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
It doesn't take a lot to get me motivated. I'm a studio rat. When I was in high school and I would walk into a recording studio, it felt like this magical place, this temple, this womb that I could escape into.
Lenny Kravitz
I'm just looking for interesting roles and giving acting the respect it deserves.
Lenny Kravitz
There's definitely an old school element to my music, but I also think it's modern.
Lenny Kravitz
I always try to keep the circumstances in my life fresh. I like to change the physical environment I live in, change the people around me and try to experience things for the first time. I think that keeps one on their toes, creatively and spiritually.
Lenny Kravitz
If I were white, I'd get less criticism.
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
Nine out of ten groups that came out in '89 are gone. I'm still here.
