Quote

I was married to someone who wanted me to change. Become more adult, more responsible. I began not to like myself, not like what I do. I lost my identity. Everything began collapsing around me.

I don't think we should ever regret anything we do. I think we have to accept the consequences and you learn from your mistakes, and that's how you grow as a person

Videos have to go hand in hand with your music, so that's why, ultimately, they should be created by the artist. And if they're not, it doesn't really add up to me.
Marilyn Manson
Image
People are very surprised to hear me say that a lot of my values are Christian values. I think that's part of my shock. I just don't like the way that Christianity combined with the influence of television has bred a nation of weakness. (Christian television do get the facts wrong sometimes and the image they portray turns most people off.)

Not only are love and hate such closely related emotions, but it's a lot easier to hate someone you've cared about than someone you never have.

If you really feel hatred for someone, and kind of send it their way, then it’s out of your system and in their hands. I always think it’s therapeutic.

Find out what's really out there. I never said to be like me, I say be like you and make a difference.

The word 'Antichrist', to me, is the collective disbelief in god.
Marilyn Manson
Image
I think art is the only thing that's spiritual in the world. And I refuse to forced to believe in other people's interpretations of God. I don't think anybody should be. No one person can own the copyright to what God means.

There's nothing that anyone could say about me that would hurt my feelings.
Marilyn Manson
Image
I don't want to have a gravestone. I want to have all my friends burn me and then snort the ashes. I think that's the only way to go out.

Capitalism has made it this way, old fashioned fascism will take it away.
Marilyn Manson

If someone listens to our music, and it makes them creative, that makes me happier than anything.
Marilyn Manson

What I'm doing is keeping the spirit of Rock'N Roll alive. Rock 'n roll is supposed to be fast and loud and its supposed to piss off the older generation.

The first time I performed musically, I threw up.

I don't think that my lyrics are over-laced with profanity, because I myself don't speak using a lot of profanity in normal conversation. But I think when you're making something aggressive and you need to get a point across, if you're angry, sometimes profanity is necessary. It's better to use a curse word than to hurt somebody else, I find.

It's not like I turn off Marilyn Manson and I'm an everyday guy who goes and has another job and doesn't think about any of this stuff. Marilyn Manson is the most real thing that can come from me.

One hates what one fears.
Marilyn Manson
Image
I'm everything they are afraid of. Everything they hate. Everything they try to hide and a lot more. Besides, I speak my mind and show people what's out there in reality.

Actors always want to be musicians, and musicians want to be actors

Anybody intelligent enough to realize what America is, is not going to sit around and do nothing about it. They're going to be the same way that I am. They're going to be the same way our fans are. They're going to be pissed.
