More quotes by Marina Abramovic
You should see ballerinas' feet. They don't have nails. You see beauty, but it's unbelievable pain - with a 40-year pension! That's it, and then life is really finished.
Marina Abramovic
With classical ballet you are literally injuring yourself.
Marina Abramovic
But what is art other than revealing human nature?
Marina Abramovic
It's very important that young artists push boundaries, because sometimes you have this urge to do something - like the impulsive and dangerous urges I had as a child - and if you don't follow through with it you might miss out on a developmental experience.
Marina Abramovic
When Lady Gaga says I am her inspiration, you reach kids between 12 and 18. Now I am like a brand - jeans, Coca-Cola.

You know, everyone is always talking about plastic surgery, or the technology, what to do.

Talking about [Donald] Trump, there's nothing wrong with Trump. He's who he is. It's wrong with us, who let him [win]. That's what's wrong. It's not that he's going to change, but the people who think like him.
Marina Abramovic

Marina Abramovic
Cancer is an emotional disease.
Marina Abramovic
Being an artist is not easy - I have always said that to the students I have taught over the years. It's a huge sacrifice.
Marina Abramovic
I didn't give any instruction to the video, because it was a new medium. I didn't know what to tell him it was so young. I did the piece and immediately after the piece, I wanted to see the material.
Marina Abramovic
The most revolutionary ideas are not sellable, but only mind-changing.
Marina Abramovic
Galás is a great artist with a very powerful voice.
Marina Abramovic
I had a very difficult relationship with my mother. She used to wake me up in the middle of the night if I wasn't sleeping straight and was messing up the sheets. Now when I stay in hotels I sleep so straight they don't even think I've used the bed.
Marina Abramovic
We, performers, work on willpower. This willpower works in a short term, not durational.
Marina Abramovic
Dali Lama said, 'when you open the heart of the person with humor, you can tell him the most truth. But if you tell him truth without humor, the heart closes.'
Marina Abramovic
Today, our attention is less than the television advertisement. We're looking at six or seven problems constantly. We're living in the disturbed societies of cities. I think modern technology is one of the worst things human beings have invented.
Marina Abramovic
Most people are more comfortable with what is familiar. I’ve spent my life doing the opposite.
Marina Abramovic
I really like dark, politically incorrect humor.
Marina Abramovic
My work is immaterial. It's not painting, it's not sculpture, it's emotions. I'm giving you something to experience yourself.
Marina Abramovic
