Marianne Faithfull
I'm alive today, I'm well, I'm working, I'm still creative. What more can I say, really?
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.

The equipment you've got really dictates what you're going to do. When I started touring, there were no monitors, so I had to take the sound from the hall, and of course it was on a delay, so I would sing, and then I would hear it back, but later. It was very weird.
Marianne Faithfull
I know for a fact that Heaven and Hell are here on Earth.

Marianne Faithfull
I have to be able to love somebody except myself and the theater.
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
All I have to do is what's right for me.
Marianne Faithfull
I have to watch out for being lazy.
Marianne Faithfull
I've done everything I want to do and gone everywhere I want to go.
Marianne Faithfull
I like my work, but my life always comes first. I always wanted to have a beautiful life, and the way to do it is in show business.
Marianne Faithfull
I don't talk about my private life.
Marianne Faithfull
The really explicit phrase is doors of perception.
Marianne Faithfull
I do yoga. I do tai chi. I do a lot to keep my body and my spirit together so I can work.
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
There are so many myths out there about Marianne Faithfull, I had to, um, detach. But I can turn it on because Marianne Faithfull is really an attitude, you know.
