The voice of an Angel, the Heart of a Lamb, the spirit of a Lioness, the presence of a Goddess, love you R.I.P Whitney Houston.
Wyclef Jean Fugees -
I don't buy into that whole concept of success that I have this mountain with this moat around it and then I get into my big car and drive to my destination and never see people. That's not my concept of success.

You might see a female, and she triggers something, or you see an old lady walking down the street, she triggers something. You go to Africa, you see the vibes, that triggers something.
Wyclef Jean Fugees -
I have a problem with procrastination. I have a great deal of difficulty deciding what to wear. It's a woman thing.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
Love and this close-knit family structure really helped to give me the confidence. To know that you have family to go back to is a help. It doesn't always happen biologically. Sometimes God gives you family in other forms, but I was very blessed. I have a very strong biological family.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
Sometimes we all need to take time and give thanks.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
This life is a process of learning.

Loving you is like a Song I replay every 3 Minutes and 30 Seconds of every Day.

People need to understand that the Lauryn Hill they were exposed to in the beginning was all that was allowed in that arena at the time. I had to step away for the sake of the machine. I was being way too compromised. I felt uncomfortable having to smile in someone's face when I really didn't like them or know them well enough to like.

Ever since I was a little kid, there used to be the Carnival that used to pass.
Wyclef Jean Fugees -
Anything that is not growing is dead.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
I was very active. I was always all over the place trying to do a million things, just into this activity. If you asked me when I was 14 what I wanted to be: "Activist, first, is my occupation. I am an activist."

Just because I have a guitar, it doesn't mean that changes me. I still rhyme, I still sing.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
I was hopeless, now I'm on Hope Road.

I wouldn't try to put myself in a box or put God in a box.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
I was looking for Quincy Jones, that's who I was obsessed with. Watching Mike Jackson, I always knew that I had to be a showman on stage, because when people come to you live you always want them to come back. You gotta give them something to remember.
Wyclef Jean Fugees -
I am up there onstage alone with that guitar. I don't have to consider no one else and whether they are comfortable. I need very little.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
I don't see no more Billie Holidays, no more Marvin Gayes, no more Smokey Robinsons. I don't even see no more Nirvanas.
Wyclef Jean Fugees -
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.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
I do music for the love of it, and I've been doing it from a very young age: about 11.

When you enter the realm of politics, you don't enter it because you want to be popular. When I want to be popular, I pull on a guitar and sing a song.
Wyclef Jean Fugees -
If everyone is a product of this society, who will say the things that need to be said, and do the things that need to be done, without compromise? Truth will never start out popular in a world more concerned with marketability than righteousness. It will initially suffer ridicule and even violence - yet ultimately it is undeniable. All of humanity is living in a dream world, but suffering real consequences.
Lauryn Hill Fugees -
My battle raps couldn't get me groceries from the supermarket.
Wyclef Jean Fugees -
God teaches me about reality, so when he tells me to do something, I do, because I'm led to.
