Quote

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.

My first memories of religion were being taken to Episcopal church. My father was Catholic, but my mother, I believe, was Episcopal. So I sort of veered off into the watered-down version of Catholicism.

I'm just here for the narcotics.

My dad loves what I do and I support my parents financially because they didn't have a job that gave them a pension.

A lot of people don't think about it, but the Bible has every horror element that you can imagine. It's got the devil, the Antichrist, Lucifer, and Satan - which are four different characters. It's got the end of the world. You've got zombies, giants, demon possession, a lot of murder.

Sometimes music, movies and books are the only things that let us feel like someone else feels like we do.

Paintings are seldom guilty and often framed for crimes they did not commit. Some cover holes-holes in walls, holes in lives. Some make holes-in wallets, holes in hearts...in negative space.

Johnny Depp is like a brother to me. We have matching tattoos on our backs - Charles Baudelaire, the flowers of evil, this giant skeleton thing. It's kind of a secret. People say to us, 'Why did you get that?' And we say, 'No reason.'

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

Image
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.

People tend to associate anyone who looks and behaves differently with illegal or immoral activity.

In a sense, terrorism blossomed in the advent of television. Television promotes terrorism in religion and in politics.

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
Image
I can't go to sleep at night if I didn't accomplish at least something. That's the one thing that keeps me up.
Marilyn Manson
Image
I can't satisfy myself with just trying to tie all of my imagination into music, especially when music is not appreciated as an art form as much as it used to be.
Marilyn Manson
Image
We are our own wicked gods with little 'g's' and big dicks, sadistic and constantly inflicting a slow demise.
Marilyn Manson
Image
Dear God, if you were alive, you know we'd kill you.

Image
When you're in a relationship, if you just break it down to regular terms, people are attracted to something, and that's what they want you to be, and that's what you should just be, and for me, it's very simple - if I meet a girl and I say, 'This is what I like about you. Just continue. Every day'

I believe a lot about psychology, or I'd like to learn about it - I'm someone who likes to learn about everything.

I eat innocent meat, the house wife I will beat, the prolife I will kill. What you won't do, I will.

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
