More quotes by 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
All I have to do is what's right for me.
Marianne Faithfull
Relationships have a nasty habit of reversing themselves whatever has been done to you in a previous involvement you'll do to the next person you're involved with, if you get half a chance.
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.

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
When you are 18, 19, 20, you're used to being photographed all the time, in a certain way. So, the narcissism becomes almost out of control. And the way that young women are photographed, they become addicted to this feedback of the image.

Marianne Faithfull
I'm interested in time, fame, death, beauty, truth, all those things.
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
It has been an extraordinary experience and, in many ways, extremely positive.
Marianne Faithfull
I do have a strong sense of God. It's impossible to explain what I mean when I say that, of course.
Marianne Faithfull
I shoot my big mouth off it just pops up! I have to learn to edit myself.
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 once asked my father what he wanted me to be. To my horror, he said, 'sociologist.'
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.
