Nelson Mandela is awe inspiring - a person who really sacrificed for what he believed in. I feel truly humbled by him.

It's harder to get out of bed when you've failed.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
One realizes after a long time that, actually, we are contradictory, all of us.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
I've had my share of dark days of the soul. I try not to focus on it too much so it doesn't get to me.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
Fashion is temporary; fashion is a race. What it's doing is giving you something that you say, "This is the outer wrapping of me." Style is something else. It's not quantifiable. Fashion is about selling. Fashion is about what's in. Style is independent of that; style is individual.

If people like your music, you can't guarantee they're going to love you.

My first understanding of HIV and AIDS was like everybody else from my generation. In the mid-'80s, we heard about this, and it was terrifying, because we knew nothing about how to respond to it appropriately, and we didn't really understand about how the virus is passed. There was a lot of misconception about that.

We think that this is just our world and we don't know what other people are thinking. Music actually is a phenomenal connector in that respect. It's a special language that defines certain boundaries and connects people in a particular way, a very emotional way, I have found.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
Music is a great vehicle for communications, and I have a certain platform. I have an opportunity and I have to take it.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
I would like to see the gay population get on board with feminism. It's a beautiful organisation and they've done so much. It seems to me a no-brainer.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -

Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
Success breeds the excitement to continue going.

Women's issues have always been a part of my life.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
When women get together as a group, it is immensely powerful.

As you get older, there will be a new challenge arising. What you thought you'd accomplished once, maybe the goal post has shifted and it's not what you're pursuing anymore, because you're not interested in that anymore, you know?
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
I'm a female but I have a masculine side and I'm not going to negate that part of myself.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
Desire, despair, desire. So many monsters.

I was perceiving myself as good as a man or equal to a man and as powerful and I wanted to look ambiguous because I thought that was a very interesting statement to make through the media. And it certainly did cause quite a few ripples and interest and shock waves.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
I've never been a social person. When I grew up, the other girls would all be combing their hair and exchanging lipstick, and I just couldn't do that group thing.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
I'd rather support the issues I truly believe in than give my vote to parties that court votes at the time of the election. I like to think that my vote strengthens the green foundation stone.
Annie Lennox Eurythmics -
I think my daughters have a pretty healthy self-awareness but I can't speak on their behalf.
