Sell your soul to yourself. You'll make more money.

I view my job as being someone who is supposed to piss people off. I don't want to be just one-of-the-guys. I don't want to be just a smiling face you see on television presenting some vapid kind of easily-digestible garbage.

When I was stalking my special lady friend on MySpace, people would always say, 'Is this really Marilyn Manson or some kind of psycho?' And I'm like, 'Both'

That becomes the revolution, to be idealistic enough that you think you can change the world, and what you find is you can't change anything but yourself.

Donohue: "It is Christianity that [Manson] hates, and it is Catholicism that he hates most of all. This guy is at war with Christ." Manson: "I can't possibly be at war with Christ, because your religion killed him and what he stood for. But if you want to be at war with me, bring it on."

Law is only what is popular. Not what's right or wrong.

When you get to heaven, you will wish you were in hell.
