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.

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

Marina Abramovic
I have always staged my fears as a way to transcend them.
Marina Abramovic
I'm talking about intellectually and emotionally challenging, but at the same time it's actually not that challenging. So there's this dichotomy.
Marina Abramovic
I made a tape recording of a bridge collapsing and I wanted to play it suddenly and very loudly when people were walking over a big bridge in Belgrade. The council forbid it. Their imagination is tiny mine is big. I want always to shake everything up.
Marina Abramovic
First of all, to do performance art, you really have to give 100 percent. I only know that I have to give 100 percent and then what happens, happens.
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.
Marina Abramovic
Western culture has more need because they're so much more degenerated. They're so much more hurt, and misbalanced completely.
Marina Abramovic
