My first dissatisfaction has always been with religion.
Marilyn Manson
Image
What nearly everybody in my life had misunderstood about Satanism was that it is not about ritual sacrifices, digging up graves and worshipping the devil. The devil doesn't exist. Satanism is about worshipping yourself, because you are responsible for your own good and evil.

Image
I can't sleep without the TV on. It doesn't matter where it is. I don't like silence. My ears ring from loud music.
Marilyn Manson
Image
They'll see it. And it doesn't matter if they don't. It's only Rock 'n' Roll. But I do intend to move more into the Mainstream. Marilyn Manson is just the First phase.

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.

When I finish a picture I don't show it to anyone if I feel it's not good enough yet. I've learnt to listen to my partners and my friends. For me it's the biggest success if they like it.

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.

In a sense, terrorism blossomed in the advent of television. Television promotes terrorism in religion and in politics.
Marilyn Manson
Image
I believe a lot about psychology, or I'd like to learn about it - I'm someone who likes to learn about everything.
Marilyn Manson
Image
The point is that life for me is not going to be the way it is for everyone else. I have a fog machine and movie lights in my bedroom.
Marilyn Manson

The imagination is precious. Don't lose it. Don't lose the child in you.
Marilyn Manson
Image
The first time I performed musically, I threw up.
Marilyn Manson

If things are too perfect, people are always so afraid that it's going to change, so they ruin it themselves.
Marilyn Manson
Image
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
Image
I refuse to say things behind people's backs.
Marilyn Manson
Image
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.

Image
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
Image
People expect me to me a 'shock rocker,' but there's nothing you can do anymore to be shocking.
Marilyn Manson
Image
If you intend to create something that people will observe and listen to, you've got to listen to them first.

Marilyn Manson has always been intended to confuse some, anger some and make some people feel at home. There's no way to misunderstand what I do - but everyone can understand it differently. That's the only way I've learned to embrace art - it has to be a question mark, not an answer.
