More quotes by Marianne Faithfull
I focus on the individual and not seeing this great big monster, the press.
Marianne Faithfull
I thought I wanted to go to drama school or university, and that would have been a completely different life. But what got me was the sound, and hearing it. Hearing everything so loud, I loved that back in the studio. I loved that from the very beginning.
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
The only time I ever really consider retiring is when I get fed up with the press. Which is often.
Marianne Faithfull
I'm glad to say my father never felt ashamed of me, but my mother probably did.
Marianne Faithfull
I once asked my father what he wanted me to be. To my horror, he said, 'sociologist.'

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 food that's never let me down in life is porridge, especially with milk and maple syrup, which is delicious. Paris isn't a porridge place, but I can buy it in London when I'm there and bring it back with me.
Marianne Faithfull
I'm interested in time, fame, death, beauty, truth, all those things.
Marianne Faithfull
I have to watch out for being lazy.
Marianne Faithfull
The voice of God, if you must know, is Aretha Franklin's.
Marianne Faithfull
The nice thing about us lot is that what we do is of no consequence. We don't do things that are important we spend our lives doing things which are not important. That's what's nice about us, we're not pompous. We never do anything very bad that's gonna change the world. We're not serious, we're butterflies. We live for a day.
Marianne Faithfull
If you analyze the bad times you find that it's because you wanted to have a bad time.
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.
Marianne Faithfull
I have to be able to love somebody except myself and the theater.
Marianne Faithfull
Feminism is the best thing to come out of the '60's.
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
I've done everything I want to do and gone everywhere I want to go.
