I wish people didn't just think of me in the '60s. I'm not any era.

There are so many myths out there about Marianne Faithfull, I had to, um, detach. But I can turn it on because Marianne Faithfull is really an attitude, you know.

My story is really an affirmation of my strength and my luck. To live with a great artist like Ted Hughes or Mick Jagger is a very, very destructive role for a woman trying to be herself. In fact, it can't be done.

Well, I really didn't enjoy some of the movies I did when I was young.

Feminism is the best thing to come out of the '60's.

Bad behaviour makes men more glamorous. Women get destroyed, thrown out of society and locked up in institutions.

I think drugs were used by me as a way of suppressing my natural spirit.
