You have to be quite grounded, and I don't know what that is. Sometimes, that means being vulnerable.
Annie LennoxJust having medicine isn't equivalent to medical care. You need the health systems, you need to create the social framework so that people feel safe.
Annie LennoxTo be labeled as a strong woman when you feel vulnerable is a strange place to be, because then you're, like, "Oh, I have to be strong now. But I don't feel strong. I feel alienated. I feel isolated. I feel that things are very surreal, and they're not authentic, and this is all just very overwhelming."
