More quotes by Shirley Manson
Pop music seems to be the way radio programming has chosen to support female artists. They have chosen not to support a more provocative voice from women, which I find disappointing.
Shirley Manson
The truth is, I've always been wracked with self-loathing and terrible, paralysing depression.
Shirley Manson
Somehow or another, my mother taught me to push through my fear, always. Feel the fear and do it anyway.

Shirley Manson
I am naive. I make mistakes - But I don't give a rat's arse how I am perceived!
Shirley Manson
I am laughably aggressive, and the rest of the band is very laid back, so we mix well.
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
I think young artists are always inspiring because they are coming at worlds from a different point of view.
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
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
Ps. I am pretty certain Beyonce doesn't need you fighting any battles on her account. Seems like she's got everything covered perfectly well on her own.
