More quotes by 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
I mean, there are only so many notes. What makes something original is how you put it together.
Lenny Kravitz
Oasis are not just influenced by the Beatles they actually take stuff. Then they get praised.
Lenny Kravitz
I feel like my best work is in front of me. I'm in the studio now, and I'm having an amazing time making this new album. It's something I can't help.
Lenny Kravitz
I've woken up from dreams and the whole song is there. I'm listening to it in my dreams. I consciously have to wake myself up and get a tape recorder because I hear it like a record.
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
I'm not one of those artists who refuses to play their hits. I find that ridiculous. Hits are a blessing.
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
A dramatic thing, the first time you stand up to your dad.
Lenny Kravitz
If I were white, I'd get less criticism.
Lenny Kravitz
I don't play the tuba.
Lenny Kravitz
You can be around 100 people and be completely alone. People don't realize what it's really like.
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.
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
So that's why you've got to try, you got to breath and have some fun. Though I'm not paid, I play this game, and I won't stop until I'm done. But what I really want to know is - Are you gonna go my way?
Lenny Kravitz
It's a good time for me to pursue acting, I suppose since I'm enjoying having another medium in which to express myself. I've been getting a great response to my work.
Lenny Kravitz
If I had to associate myself with one song, it would probably be Let Love Rule. It's so simple and to the point. It speaks for itself.
Lenny Kravitz
I just feel so good it feels like a very creative time for me. As far as my mind, spirit, and body, I've never felt better.
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
Music definitely inspires my design all the time.
