Anything can be misinterpreted. People can look at Christ on a cross and think, This is an image of murder, this is violent, this has sexual imagery in it. And it just - I think it's my job as an artist to be out there pushing people's buttons and making them question everything.
Marilyn Manson
Image
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
Image
If Satan wasn't around, churches would go out of business.
Marilyn Manson
Image
If I think I weigh too much, I'll lose weight if my hair looks stupid, I'll cut it. I guess I'm my harshest critic. I'm not easily satisfied.
Marilyn Manson
Image
I'm not anything like Brad Pitt or Antonio Banderas, but maybe it's the taboo element of my image, which is almost deathlike, that attracts them. I should be the last person that [people] should be attracted to.
Marilyn Manson
Image
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
Image
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
Image
You get depressed because you know that you're not what you should be.
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
If you intend to create something that people will observe and listen to, you've got to listen to them first.

My dad being a salesman taught me you can sell anybody anything if you've got the ability to believe.
