I realized that I started writing songs to make people feel how I felt, rather than just making them feel something. That's not the way I should do things.

More quotes by Marilyn Manson
I'll pretend that I want you for what is on the inside.
Marilyn Manson
I often obsess so much about things that I can't get done, that I ruin other things.
Marilyn Manson
I don't try to be bad as much as I just am by nature.
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 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
Music is the strongest form of magic.
Marilyn Manson
When you're taught to love everyone, to love your enemies, then what value does that place on love?
Marilyn Manson
I'm completely unlike a lot of other performers in the past who have been forgiven or come to terms with the real world because they tell everyone their performance is 'just a show.' And so, people say, 'Oh, it's OK then. We don't care. He's not really a bad person.' It's not just a show for me. It's my life.
Marilyn Manson
I did vote Obama. But I've never believed in the authenticity of the two-party system.
Marilyn Manson
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.
Marilyn Manson
When you grow up in America things like Christianity waters down your feeling... When you're taught to love everybody, taught to love you're enemies, what value does that put on love?
Marilyn Manson
If people really stopped and realized how much art and creative people move the world versus politics and religion, I mean it’s not even up for debate. An artist at least creates things, puts things into the world. Where as these other people are destroying things, taking things out of the world.
Marilyn Manson
I put a mustache and some eyebrows on, and I looked just like Nicolas Cage. ... We have the same amazingly handsome good looks.
Marilyn Manson
If what you do is being threatened as a profession, that could be scary. But that's the same reason why I walked out on stage many times after receiving death threats. I couldn't live without doing what I wanted to do. So at the same time I have to be willing to die for it.
Marilyn Manson
If we're bringing up kids that are so stupid that they kill themselves because of a song, what good are the kids in the first place ?
Marilyn Manson
I am the pedophiles dream, a messianic Peter Pan.
Marilyn Manson
If I were in a room full of people, I'd rather be the person who is more interesting than the one who is wallpaper.
Marilyn Manson
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.
Marilyn Manson
I believe in dreams. I believe that every night on the planet everything that is, was and can be is dreamt. I believe that what happens in dreams is no different no less important than what happens in the waking world. I believe that dreams are the closest equvalent present-day mankind has to trime travel.
Marilyn Manson
There was definitely a lack of any sort of villain in the Clinton era, which is why when Columbine happened, it was easy to pick on me. My face was around and it made good TV.
