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.

More quotes by Lenny Kravitz
You can be around 100 people and be completely alone. People don't realize what it's really like.
Lenny Kravitz
A dramatic thing, the first time you stand up to your dad.
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.
Lenny Kravitz
The image is an image.
Lenny Kravitz
I just live my life and try to be present.
Lenny Kravitz
It's like a dream to come to Spain and stay for a couple of years and get somebody to teach me Spanish music.
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 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
None of those material possessions do anything to make your life any better.... I know a lot of people who have a lot of everything, and they're absolutely the most miserable people in the world. So it won't do anything for you unless you're a happy person and can have peace with yourself.
Lenny Kravitz
One day we're going to watch people fight to the death, like Roman times. Instead of being in a coliseum, we're going to watch it on TV.
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 feel like I'm only in the beginning of my career. I've only made five albums. It's not a lot.
Lenny Kravitz
We're getting so pulled in by computers and technology, and our kids have their face in the computers all day. The human relationship is being diminished by this.
Lenny Kravitz
There's nothing more that we love than having a close, personal, open relationship, and I believe that's what God wants.
Lenny Kravitz
I've always been into films. I've been offered lots of films but they've always been these very stereotypical roles. They wanted me to play some gangster or street guy, or pimp, drug addict.
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 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
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
Music definitely inspires my design all the time.
Lenny Kravitz
I've always had to deal with being biracial, even in music. When I came on the scene, I'd go to these record labels, and they'd say things like, Lenny Kravitz. That's a weird name. I'm brown-skinned and I've got these dreadlocks and I've got this Jewish last name.
