More quotes by Marianne Faithfull
I'm a Capricorn, and they flower late.
Marianne Faithfull
I know for a fact that Heaven and Hell are here on Earth.
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 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'm glad to say my father never felt ashamed of me, but my mother probably did.
Marianne Faithfull
You know the first objective is to get out of your hometown, second objective, get it together in the capital. The awful thing about left the school, is that you'd feel you'd be important. It would matter what you did.
Marianne Faithfull
When you lose your reputation at 19, you lose everything.
Marianne Faithfull
Feminism is the best thing to come out of the '60's.
Marianne Faithfull
I once asked my father what he wanted me to be. To my horror, he said, 'sociologist.'
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
It has been an extraordinary experience and, in many ways, extremely positive.
Marianne Faithfull

Marianne Faithfull
I get all dressed up with that Marianne Faithfull face, and the next thing I know, I'm blurting out things that I shouldn't, trying to get attention when, really, I've got everybody's attention already.
Marianne Faithfull
All I have to do is what's right for me.
Marianne Faithfull
Rebellion is the only thing that keeps you alive!
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
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
I have to be able to love somebody except myself and the theater.
Marianne Faithfull
I've done everything I want to do and gone everywhere I want to go.
