Marina Abramovic
A great artist has to be ready to fail.

Television is completely another medium. For me, Lady Gaga and HBO are bringing us to mass culture.

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.

We always want to do things the way we like, that's why we never change.
Marina Abramovic
When you're 50, the best thing to do is dance the Argentinean tango.

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
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.
Marina Abramovic
I am not a therapist. I am not a spiritual leader. These elements are in the art: it is therapeutic, spiritual, social and political - everything. It has many layers. But art has to have many layers. If it doesn't, then forget it.
Marina Abramovic
Americans don't like European movies.
Marina Abramovic
Why not do something strange and different for once? Artists can do whatever they want!
Marina Abramovic
I'm interested in utopian communities of the past. Many of them didn't survive and I'm examining closely the reasons they failed.
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.
Marina Abramovic
You know, everyone is always talking about plastic surgery, or the technology, what to do. I really think it's important to help yourself with the technology if you want to feel better, but I am absolutely against any kind of monstrous cuts of the body, lifting that is beyond recognition, this kind of stuff.
Marina Abramovic
I always do big birthday things. In three years, I'm 70. I'm going to do something outrageous. In America, everyone's always hiding their age.
Marina Abramovic
When you have so much pain, you think you will lose consciousness. If you say to yourself, ‘So what, lose consciousness,’ the pain goes away.
