More quotes by 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
One musician listens to another musician, and you get inspired and then you do your thing, but it's yours.
Lenny Kravitz
Music definitely inspires my design all the time.
Lenny Kravitz
It's very important to vote. People died for this right.
Lenny Kravitz
Jimi Hendrix was just so fluid. His hands were connected to his soul, you know? His playing was just so emotional. You could feel the fire, you could feel the blues. You could feel the sadness. It's unbelievable.
Lenny Kravitz
People feel they have to live that stereotypical lifestyle in order to be a rock star. You don't have to shoot heroin and act a certain way to be a rock and roll musician.
Lenny Kravitz
You can't even sing or play an instrument, so you just scream instead. You're living for an image, so you got five hundred women in your bed.
Lenny Kravitz
I just live my life and try to be present.
Lenny Kravitz
I knew what I wanted to do from the time I was 5.
Lenny Kravitz
I'm half Jewish, I'm half black, I look in-between. I dress funny. I play all these different styles of music on one record. It's like, What is he doing?
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
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
I wanted to make something that sounded very pure, organic, and personal. I wanted to make music that was timeless.
Lenny Kravitz
I didn't really listen to rock 'n' roll until I moved to LA. We would ditch school, go get high, put on Zeppelin IV and just bug out.
Lenny Kravitz
You can be around 100 people and be completely alone. People don't realize what it's really like.
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
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
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
People see my photos and think I labor over my image and I'm this cool, brooding artist. But I'm just having fun with it.
Lenny Kravitz
I am not trying to change the world. I am just offering my gift that God gave me, and if somebody is moved by it, that's beautiful.
