More quotes by Marianne Faithfull
Bad behaviour makes men more glamorous. Women get destroyed, thrown out of society and locked up in institutions.
Marianne Faithfull
All I can say is I've been lucky with my body. Well done, little body. I praise it and say, 'You're very good.'
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
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'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.'

Marianne Faithfull
All I have to do is what's right for me.

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've done everything I want to do and gone everywhere I want to go.
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 really explicit phrase is doors of perception.
Marianne Faithfull
Never apologize, never explain - didn't we always say that? Well, I haven't and I don't.
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 think drugs were used by me as a way of suppressing my natural spirit.
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
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.
