Lauryn Hill's quotes

  • Consequence is no coincidence.
  • I had to confront my fears and master my every demonic thought about inferiority, insecurity, or the fear of being black, young, and gifted in this Western culture.
  • Be honest, brutally honest. That is what's going to maintain relationships.
  • Reality is easy. It's deception that's the hard work.
  • We can't plan life. All we can do is be available for it.
  • That strong mother doesn't tell her cub, Son, stay weak so the wolves can get you. She says, Toughen up, this is reality we are living in.
  • When I was working, and when I was making substantial amounts of money, I always filed and paid my taxes. This only stopped, when it was necessary to withdraw from society, in order to guarantee the safety and well-being of myself and my family.
  • I don't know anybody that's not emotionally unstable or schizophrenic.
  • Real religion is no religion at all.
  • The less I have, the freer I am to do whatever I want to do.
  • I never did anything I'm really ashamed of.
  • You don't know how much artists go through to make it look so easy. It's all in the practice.
  • I believe God will make a way.
  • What was freely given to me, I freely give.
  • Everything we do should be a result of our gratitude for what God has done for us.
  • Hip-Hop isn't just music, it is also a spiritual movement of the blacks! You can't just call Hip-Hop a trend!
  • I need to be surrounded by people as passionate and as dedicated as I am.
  • This life is a process of learning.
  • I think what people are attracted to about me, if anything, is my passion. People got exposed to my passion through music and song first.
  • We have to make sure the music and the message and the words and all the elements come through in our songs and every time we appear in public.
  • We don't want people to have expectations of us, but then we have expectations of everybody else.
  • To those supporters who were told that I abandoned them, that is untrue. I abandoned greed, corruption, and compromise, never you, and never the artistic gifts and abilities that sustained me.
  • We call ourselves creators and we just copy.
  • I tried to manipulate and control people, and I harbored resentment. I wanted to be forgiven, but I wouldn't forgive others.
  • Nobody's going to force me to do something against my will. What do I owe anybody that I should submit my will to them?
  • I got into direct confrontation with everybody I love.
  • When you're young and everything dramatic is exciting, you start to believe that hype that, in order to be an artist, you have to suffer. I've graduated from that school.
  • I don't need anybody to market or promote me. If people don't want to hear this music, then it's not for them. You cannot please everybody.
  • When I have a creative insight, there is a high. I think back in the day, I made music as much as I did because it made me feel so good. I think you could argue that there is a creative addiction - but, you know, the healthy kind.
  • The danger I faced was not accepted as reasonable grounds for deferring my tax payments, as authorities, who despite being told all of this, still chose to pursue action against me, as opposed to finding an alternative solution.
  • Over-commercialization and its resulting restrictions and limitations can be very damaging and distorting to the inherent nature of the individual. I did not deliberately abandon my fans, nor did I deliberately abandon any responsibilities.
  • From the first time someone says, Who do you think you are? we learn how to repress.
  • Let optimists rule the world.
  • I have a couple of all-time favorites: Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack, Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell.
  • I wouldn't even hold my kids sometimes because I didn't want them to spit up on me when I was dressed for an awards show.
  • I had total control of the album [The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill]. Chris Swartz at Ruffhouse, my label, said, 'Listen, you've never done anything stupid thus far, so let me let you do your thing.
