Quotes by Marilyn Manson

I was married to someone who wanted me to change. Become more adult, more responsible. I began not to like myself, not like what I do. I lost my identity. Everything began collapsing around me.

Growing up going to Christian school and the concept that you’re born a sinner and you don’t really have a choice to change who you are has been hammered into my head and created the entire reason why I made art and made a band and made records called ‘Antichrist Superstar.’

There’s no reason to change what you are, but if you’re not being you, then you need to acknowledge that.

Sometimes you feel awkward being what you’re best at, you feel like you have to be something new.

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.
