It's unhealthy for people to never express any kind of negativity or doubt. To have balance, you need to address that side of your thoughts as well as the positive. Otherwise, you tend toward crazy.

More quotes by Shirley Manson
I am a contradictory mess but I see it as my prerogative to change my mood like the weather.
Shirley Manson
My solo album is dead and buried. We had the funeral. It was sad and I cried a lot but it made such a beautiful corpse that we had an open casket.
Shirley Manson
The truth is, I've always been wracked with self-loathing and terrible, paralysing depression.
Shirley Manson
People don't associate red hair, pale skin, and freckles with beauty.
Shirley Manson
I have a lot of very close girlfriends and sisters - I'm from an all female family. My father often quips that even the cat was neutered!
Shirley Manson

Being a musician makes you very - musicians in general tend to be quite sensitive, I think, to the environment around them, which helps when you are trying to interact with others on screen, to be aware, to be sensitive, and to try to understand what's going on in the scene.

I was a redhead and a middle child both can make you feel excluded. It's like fighting to be included, in the swim of things. After a while you start to develop a bit of a victim mentality, which isn't great for a happy life.
Shirley Manson
Here am I. I'm 38. My career's probably never been better. And I've made a decision which may or may not impact on it - I refuse to hide my experience and my age, as if it's something I should be ashamed of. I'm alive. I know lots of people who've never been lucky enough to get to this stage in their life. And I'm not gonna hide it for anybody.
Shirley Manson
You know, it doesn’t matter how beautiful you are, if you don’t have anything interesting to say, then you’re still boring.
Shirley Manson
I feel the same way I did when I was in school. I'm having the same insecurities.
Shirley Manson
Obviously, from the experience you get from making videos, you understand where the camera is and how some of the actual technicalities work and so on and so forth.
Shirley Manson
Possibly because I grew up not feeling very confident about my own physical appearance, I developed internal devices so that I could integrate into society.
Shirley Manson
It's really difficult to navigate attention and stardom and celebrity status and still try to maintain yourself and hold onto your intelligence and integrity. It's really challenging.
Shirley Manson
I think it's a great thing to have failed in life and then pulled yourself up by the boot straps and actually done something, because then you appreciate it more.
Shirley Manson
When somebody asks me a question, I try to be as straightforward about it as possible. I try not to overthink what I'm going to say in an interview.
Shirley Manson
At the end of the day, though, the band members have to be strong. It's down to the individuals in the unit. Listen to me, I'm talking like I'm in the army and this is my squadron.
Shirley Manson
I think young artists are always inspiring because they are coming at worlds from a different point of view.
Shirley Manson
I want to hang out in Edinburgh with my friends and eat fish and chips wrapped in newspaper.
