More quotes by Marina Abramovic
I am obsessive always, even as a child. On one side is this strict orthodox religion, on the other is communism, and I am this little girl pulled between the two. It makes me who I am. It turns me into the kind of person that Freud would have a field day with, for sure.

When I did Seven Easy Pieces, I actually re-performed the performances of other artists. It was such difficult work because I had to really go through the documentation, look through the sources, to ask the witnesses who saw it.
Marina Abramovic
We wanted to prove that I am not just a provocateur, as the television said [referring to a Fox news clip shown in the film]. It's challenging, but it's not just challenging.

We're destroying the planet, and the planet rebels.

Marina Abramovic
I always sent my mother all these huge books I made. When my mother died, I was cleaning her cupboard, and these big books were only 20 pages long. She edited out, maybe burned, every single photograph where I'm naked.
Marina Abramovic
I have always staged my fears as a way to transcend them.
Marina Abramovic
I believe that life is shorter that is why we have to make experience longer.
Marina Abramovic
I didn't get paid for performances most of my life. If I did, I would be billionaire now, and I'm not.
Marina Abramovic
Every party is the same, too many people, too little food, and you have to wait around. I'm extremely bored with parties.
Marina Abramovic
If you're a woman, it's almost impossible to establish a relationship. You're too much for everybody. It's too much. The woman always has to play this role of being fragile and dependent. And if you're not, they're fascinated by you, but only for a little while. And then they want to change you and crush you. And then they leave.
Marina Abramovic
We always want to do things the way we like, that's why we never change.
Marina Abramovic
Typically, the performance has a story - a beginning, the crescendo and the end.
Marina Abramovic
When you have a nonverbal conversation with a total stranger, then he cant cover himself with words, he cant create a wall.

Happiness comes from the full understanding of your own being.
