I Don't Think That My Lyrics Are Over-laced With Profanity, Because I Myself Don't Speak Using A Lot Of Profanity In Normal Conversation. But I Think When You're Making Something Aggressive And You Need To Get A Point Across, If You're Angry, Sometimes Profanity Is Necessary. It's Better To Use A Curse Word Than To Hurt Somebody Else, I Find.

Looking Back, The Only Person That Really Surprised Me Was Chris Vrenna Only Because I've Known Him Since 1992, And For Him Not To Be Able To Say It To My Face, "hey, I Don't Want To Do This Anymore." Instead, He Said "i'll See You Tomorrow" And Then He Never Came Back. I Find That Strange. I Don't Know If He Is Afraid Of Me Or Thinks I'm Going To Beat Him Over The Head With Something. I'm Not Like That.

To Me, Columbine Is Just As Awful As Vietnam And It's Just As Awful As Anything Else.

I Wish That My Life Could Be Like The Movies, Like Bonnie And Clyde Or The Hunger Or Harold And Maude. And... It Can Be! It Maybe Just Takes Somebody Else Who Is As Fearless As You. It Takes A Person Who Will Not Hesitate.

I Believe That You Are Not Stuck With A Pre-destiny. I Believe That There Is Ways To See All These Things That Are Laid Down In Front Of You And Where You Belong And To Smack Yourself In The Face When You Realize That You've Strayed Off Your Path And Get Back To Where Your Path Is.

There's A Lot Of Talk In Some Of The Other Versions Of The Bible, The Hebrew Versions, And Things About The End Of The World Not Being A Punishment From God, But Being An Invitation From Mankind. That Mankind Has To Invite Its Own Destruction. And I Think That's Very True, And It's Almost Very American.

When You're Taught To Love Everyone, To Love Your Enemies, Then What Value Does That Place On Love?

My Art Is Not Limited To The Songs I Create But Also To The Reaction It Creates. I Like To Sit Back And Look At The Whole Thing As If It's A Tornado That I'm Controlling. It's Creating Chaos. When You Create Chaos, Ideas Are Turned Upside Down, And Everybody Looks At Things In A Different Way.

I'm A Controversial Artist, One Who Dares To Have An Opinion And Bothers To Create Music And Videos That Challenge People's Ideas In A World That Is Watered-down And Hollow. In My Work I Examine The America We Live In, And I've Always Tried To Show People That The Devil We Blame Our Atrocities On Is Really Just Each One Of Us.

What Doesn't Kill You Is Gonna Leave A Scar.

I`m Not A Slave To A God That Doesn`t Exist.

Marriage Changes Everything.

I Am A Character, So That's The Problem. There Are Many, Many Levels To How I Behave. Some People Might Associate Being Marilyn Manson As Having Lipstick On, But I Don't Really Have Some Sort Of Other Lifestyle.

I Think That's All A Form Of Wanting To Let Go, Of Wanting To Get Out... It's Not Something Easily Described Or Understood.

Man's Greatest Fear Is Chaos.

You Have To Really Swallow Your Pride And Admit That You Want To Make A Comeback. And That Means That You Weren't At Your Best And I Feel Like I Stopped Being Who I Needed To Be. When I Started Making This Record "born Villain", I Didn't Want To Be What I Used To Be But I Certainly Didn't Want To Be What I Was At The Time. I Knew That I Was Supposed To Be Something Better Then What I Was. I Feel That I Am Close To Being What I'm Supposed To Be And Am Enjoying What I'm Doing Here.

The Time That People Aren't Expecting What's Going To Happen, I Find That's The Best Time To Really Cause The Damage That Needs To Be Done.

A Pill To Make You Numb, A Pill To Make You Dumb.

I Eat Innocent Meat, The House Wife I Will Beat, The Prolife I Will Kill. What You Won't Do, I Will.

To Admit You Want To Have A Comeback Means You Have To Admit You Weren't What You Were Supposed To Be. You Dropped Below Your Own Standard.

If You Intend To Create Something That People Will Observe And Listen To, You've Got To Listen To Them First.

I've Always Been Paranoid About The Police, Because Even When I'm Not Doing Anything Illegal, I'm Thinking About Doing Something Illegal. So, Whenever I'm Around A Cop, I Get Uncomfortable And Nervous, Worried That I'll Say The Wrong Thing Or Look So Guilty They'll Arrest Me Anyway. Being Completely Out Of My Mind On Drugs Doesn't Help The Situation Any.

The Idea Of Marilyn Manson Has Been Brewing In My Head, One Form Or Another, Since I Was About 12 Years Old At A Christian High School In Canton, Ohio.

We Are The Things And Shapes To Come, Your Freedom's Not Free Of Dumb.

Whether You Interpret The Bible As Literature Or As The Final Word Of Whatever God May Be, Christianity Has Given Us An Image Of Death And Sexuality That We Have Based Our Culture Around. A Half-naked Dead Man Hangs In Most Homes And Around Our Necks, And We Have Just Taken That For Granted All Of Our Lives.

Capitalism Has Made It This Way, Old Fashioned Fascism Will Take It Away.

I Don't Care If Your World Is Ending Today Because I Wasn't Invited To It Anyway.

I'm Tired Of People Calling Me A Devil Worshipper. It's Kind Of Pointless You Know. Because If The Devil Did Exist, He'd Be Worshipping Me, Because I'm More Successful Than He Is.

I Chose Not To Jump Into The Media Frenzy And Defend Myself, Though I Was Begged To Be On Every Single Tv Show In Existence. They Want To Blame Entertainment? Isn't Religion The First Real Entertainment? People Dress Up In Costumes, Sing Songs And Dedicate Themselves In Eternal Fandom.

I Don't Know Which Me That I Love, Got No Reflection.

Let The Ugly Light Of The World In, We Are No Longer Blind.

Anybody Who Does Not Evolve Can Become A Self-parody. I Have To Evolve On A Daily Basis Just To Keep My Own Interest In What I Do.

I Am Truly Amazed That After All This Time, Religious Groups Still Need To Attack Entertainment And Use These Tragedies As A Pitiful Excuse For Their Own Self-serving Publicity. In Response To Their Protests, I Will Provide A Show Where I Balance My Songs With A Wholesome Bible Reading. This Way, Fans Will Not Only Hear My So-called, Violent Point Of View, But We Can Also Examine The Virtues Of Wonderful 'christian' Stories Of Disease, Murder, Adultery, Suicide And Child Sacrifice. Now That Seems Like 'entertainment' To Me.

I Say No To Drugs, But They Don't Listen.

Say No To Drugs

I've Known Johnny Depp Since I Was 19.

For Me, It's Never Been An Ego Situation Where I Have Been "i'm The Boss; Expletive You." It's Always Been A Situation Where Someone Comes To Me And Says "i Can't Tolerate Working With You Anymore" And I Would Admit Sometimes I Wouldn't Blame Them For That. But I Also Sometimes Think I'm Not That Difficult To Figure Out. I Don't Really Know What Has Driven People To Be So Angry And Bitter - People Like My Old Keyboard Player Pogo, Who I've Known For Such A Long Time. I Feel Bad For Him, But There Are Grievances With Everything.

It's Not Like I Turn Off Marilyn Manson And I'm An Everyday Guy Who Goes And Has Another Job And Doesn't Think About Any Of This Stuff. Marilyn Manson Is The Most Real Thing That Can Come From Me.

I'm Absolutely Not Looking For Someone Who Agrees With Me About Everything Or Someone Who Wants To Please Me By Believing What I Believe.

I Believe A Lot About Psychology, Or I'd Like To Learn About It - I'm Someone Who Likes To Learn About Everything.

As You Keep Getting More Popular, People Are Continually Wanting More From You And It Seems To Me That All They Want In The End Is Your Death.

I'm My Most Creative Between 3 And 5 A.m. That's The Way I've Always Been

If I Hadn't Gone To A Private Christian School, I'd Never Have Built Up Enough Animosity To Want To Have Started A Band. And Now That I Have One, The Fact That They Are Giving Me Such Resistance And Publicity, They Have Made Me Far Bigger Than They'd Ever Have Wanted Me To Have Become. So I Guess In A Strange Way The Christians Have Influenced Me The Most.

If God Does Exist, It's In Music And In Art, I Think There's More Spiritually In What I Do Than In A Lot Of Religious Groups Judging, Especially In The Way They've Treated Me In The Past Couple Of Years. I've Grown Tired Of Talking About Religion. It's Time For Me To Move On. I'm Trying To Redefine The Idea Of Spirituality And Make It Now Such A Bad Word For Myself, Because I Find That I Sound Really Stupid Saying It Sometimes

When People Say 'i Want To Be Like You', I Tell Them If You Want To Be Like Me, Then Be Yourself.

People Love To Judge, As Long As They Have Somebody Else To Judge They Don't Give In And Answer With Hate Would Drag Me Down, It Would Simply Put Me Into The Same Position They Are, I Don't Believe That Their Position Is An Enviable One!

I Think People Have Always Misinterpreted My Self-destructive Nature As Nihilistic, Because If You Don't Care About The World, You Can't Create Art. I Am Misanthropic And Self-loathing, But Never Nihilistic. And I Think I Act Far Worse Off-stage Than Onstage.

And That's The Type Of Thing I'm Trying To Speak Out Against The Most, Religion Controlling What We See And What We Do In Our Personal Lives, Even If You're Not A Part Of That Religion. Antichrist Superstar[the Album] Is A Challenge Really, To Traditional Morality And It's...to Make People Question That And Make People Think About Different Perspectives.

People Drink To Numb The Pain And Suffering. I Think It's The Pain And Suffering That Drive You To Become An Artist. The Art Itself Should Be The Pain, Sort Of Exorcising Every Demon And Making You Feel Like You're A Person That Matters.

I Walked Away Exhilarated By My Success, Because There's Nothing Like Making A Difference In Someone's Life, Even If That Difference Is A Lifetime Of Nightmares And A Fortune In Therapy Bills.

Making A Difference

This Isn't A Mob, Won't Need To Change The Names. Everyone Around You Has Murdered Someone, Something Sacred. There Isn't One Nail Without Dirt Under It. There Isn't Any White Cotton Panties That Aren't Soaked And Stained Red. It's Better To Push Something When It's Slipping, Than To Risk Being Dragged Down.

Are People Raised To Be Villains Or Vilified Like I Have Become?

Don't Ever Empty The Bucket Of Mystery. Never Let People Define What You Do. It's Not About Zigging When You Should Zag. It's Not About Doing Something Unprecedented And Unpredictable. It's Just About Never Being A Word, Or Something That Is Not In The Process Of Transformation...

My Fans Make Me Feel As Young As They Are. We Share The Same Spirit And I Share Their Outlook On Life

Outlook On Life
