I am the ism, my hate's a prism.

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'

In the end we're all Jerry Springer Show guests, really, we just haven't been on the show.

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.

As a performer, I wanted to be the loudest, most persistent alarm clock I could be, because there didn’t seem like any other way to snap society out of its Christianity- and media-induced coma.

I'll pretend that I want you for what is on the inside.

The aspiration to save the world is a morbid phenomenon of today's youth.
