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.

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.

We are our own wicked gods with little 'g's' and big dicks, sadistic and constantly inflicting a slow demise.

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 confidence is the most appealing quality in any human being or any artist; that's what really attracts us to people.

I don't want to have a gravestone. I want to have all my friends burn me and then snort the ashes. I think that's the only way to go out.

Libido, fascination, too much oral defecation. White trash get down on your knees, time for cake and sodomy.
