More quotes by Marianne Faithfull
I once asked my father what he wanted me to be. To my horror, he said, 'sociologist.'
Marianne Faithfull
I got my interest in Lotte Lenya and the Brecht-Weill canon from my parents. And I love classical music - I got that from my parents. I love Cole Porter - that I got from my dad.
Marianne Faithfull
When you split from someone, it doesn't have to mean that you don't love them anymore, you realize that the period of that particular romance is over. One always has to get out before one gets kicked out.
Marianne Faithfull
I don't see decadence really as what you do, because I don't do much at all that is decadent in my life. But I still am decadent. It's a state of mind, I think.
Marianne Faithfull
I never like photos of myself in the beginning. I live with them for three months, put them in a drawer, take them out and look again. I hate the way I look, but of course it's really not that bad.
Marianne Faithfull
I'm sick of being self-referential. I don't want to do any more songs that can be accused of being personal.
Marianne Faithfull
Bad behaviour makes men more glamorous. Women get destroyed, thrown out of society and locked up in institutions.

I'm interested in time, fame, death, beauty, truth, all those things.
Marianne Faithfull
Never apologize, never explain - didn't we always say that? Well, I haven't and I don't.
Marianne Faithfull
I was told that I had very likely been clinically depressed for a long, long time, probably since I was 15, or even 14. It explained, to me at least, a lot of my behaviour over the years.
Marianne Faithfull
If you analyze the bad times you find that it's because you wanted to have a bad time.
Marianne Faithfull
I was anorexic in the 60s and 70s, although it wasn't called anorexia then. I thought people would be nicer to me if I looked very small and delicate, so food wasn't high on my agenda. But it is now.
Marianne Faithfull
I've got a lot of little compulsive problems, and I've thought about it a lot. And one of the things I ask myself is, 'What are the things I can do that won't hurt me and will help me?' The first answer is work.
Marianne Faithfull
My first job was singing at the Hammersmith Odeon. It was years ago, so I can't remember who I was performing with. I was a sort of anti-climax after two hours of heavy rock-'n'-roll. Seventeen years old in a white dress. It was the first time that I got applause. Wonderful, that noise in my ears.
Marianne Faithfull
The really explicit phrase is doors of perception.
Marianne Faithfull
I wish people didn't just think of me in the '60s. I'm not any era.
Marianne Faithfull
I think drugs were used by me as a way of suppressing my natural spirit.
