More quotes by Marilyn Manson
I just don't like when there's a rumor that says I'm dating someone who is below my standards. But when I got divorced, my ex-wife said I was spending all my time with Lindsay Lohan and Angelina Jolie. I was like, 'Thank you for the big ups!'
Marilyn Manson
There's a lot of great stories and a lot of great values in the Holy Bible, and I actually relate to a lot of them. The character, the idea, or the part of my personality that I describe as Antichrist Superstar, is a lot like Lucifer in the Bible. Someone who was kicked out of heaven because he wanted to be God
Marilyn Manson
I pity anybody who has to spend a day with me.
Marilyn Manson
I often obsess so much about things that I can't get done, that I ruin other things.
Marilyn Manson
What doesn't kill you is gonna leave a scar.
Marilyn Manson
I think it's the pain and suffering that drive you to become an artist. The art itself should be the pain, sort of exorcising every demon and making you feel like you're a person that matters.
Marilyn Manson
I try and take everyone's ideals, common morals, flip them around, make people look at them differently, question them, so that you're not always taking things for granted.
Marilyn Manson
The word 'Antichrist', to me, is the collective disbelief in god.
Marilyn Manson
One hates what one fears.
Marilyn Manson
The record is about seeing death and growing from it, and in the end, being strong and being alive.
Marilyn Manson
You should have to pass an IQ test before you breed. You have to take a driving test to operate vehicles and an SAT test to get into college. So why don’t you have to take some sort of test before you give birth to children? When I am President, that’s the first rule I will institute.
Marilyn Manson
For me it's very important to express my thoughts, the pictures I carry inside of me, maybe because it's important to get them out.
Marilyn Manson
To admit you want to have a comeback means you have to admit you weren't what you were supposed to be. You dropped below your own standard.
Marilyn Manson
The advantage of the internet is that it has taken away the charade of politics. China has heard of democracy and people know about certain concepts they wouldn't have previously.
Marilyn Manson
I fall in love with everything I also hate everything. It’s very hard to be a misanthrope and a romantic.
Marilyn Manson
Anybody who does not evolve can become a self-parody. I have to evolve on a daily basis just to keep my own interest in what I do.
Marilyn Manson
Apart from a very close circle of friends, few people know my true self, and it's normal, I never put it into my music.
Marilyn Manson
I think people have always misinterpreted my self-destructive nature as nihilistic, because if you don't care about the world, you can't create art. I am misanthropic and self-loathing, but never nihilistic. And I think I act far worse off-stage than onstage.
Marilyn Manson
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.)
Marilyn Manson
Marilyn Manson is a mockery of American pop culture.
