More quotes by Marilyn Manson
Seance to renaissance. So it begins
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
I am a character, so that's the problem. There are many, many levels to how I behave. Some people might associate being Marilyn Manson as having lipstick on, but I don't really have some sort of other lifestyle.
Marilyn Manson
Art, to me, is a question. It should never be an answer.
Marilyn Manson
If you're gonna pretend to be something, then you have to at least live up to what it is.
Marilyn Manson
If you die and enough people are watching, then you become a martyr, you become a hero, you become well-known.
Marilyn Manson
There is good and evil within all of us, and I enjoy searching to bring that out through my music. I like it that there are questions brought out by my music. People must look inside themselves for the answers
Marilyn Manson
The idea of heaven is Christianity's way of creating a hell on earth.
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 think guilt is the biggest problem in America, people are always feeling guilty about being themselves. You can't say what you want because it's not politically correct. You can't look like you want because you, the people at the office aren't going to like you and so on.
Marilyn Manson
I've never been a suicidal person. I've never been someone to want to see the world come to an end. But I would like to see something different than what I'm seeing. Because it is becoming a monotonous - as if you're watching re-runs of things you've already seen.
Marilyn Manson
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.'
Marilyn Manson
Why should we believe in a god, that doesnt believe in us?
Marilyn Manson
The death of one is a tragedy, but death of a million is just a statistic.
Marilyn Manson
I eat innocent meat, the house wife I will beat, the prolife I will kill. What you won't do, I will.
Marilyn Manson
To me, Columbine is just as awful as Vietnam and it's just as awful as anything else.
Marilyn Manson
I think people have to take responsibility for their own actions.
Marilyn Manson
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.
Marilyn Manson
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.
Marilyn Manson
If a kid is old enough to drive a car or buy a gun, isn't he old enough to be held personally responsible for what he does with his car or gun? Or if he's a teenager, should someone else be blamed because he isn't as enlightened as an eighteen-year-old?
