Marilyn Manson Quotes
These quotes are from Marilyn Manson.
"It was my most honest attempt to fit in with their idea of Christianity, to prove my connection with their beliefs, and I was punished for it"
"Marilyn Manson was the perfect story protangonist for a frustrated writer like myself. He was a character who, because of his content for the world around him and, more so, himself, does everything he can to trick people into liking him. And then, once he wins their confidence, he uses it to destroy them."
"The biggest sin in Satanism is not murder nor is it kindness. It is stupidity."
"I had seen the enemies I was up against, and not only were they capable of stopping shows and making unreasonable demands on our performances, but they were capable of, for no reason at all, taking away the one thing LaVey and I both stand for: personal freedom. Like LaVey, I had also discovered what happens when you say something powerful that makes people think. They become afraid of you, and they neutralize your message by giving you a label that is not open to interpretation-as a fascist, a devil worshipper or an advocate of rape and violence."
"I've thought about being the Antichrist since the word was first taught to me at Christian school. In the bible the word antichrist is only used as a discription of people who don't believe in the teachings of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. He is not described as one satanic entity-as the beast of Revelation which many people believe-but as a person, any person, who deviates from the Christian orthodoxy. But through the years of myth-making and fear-sowing, Christianity metamorphosed antichrists into a single Antichrist, an apocalyptic villian and Christian bogeyman used to scare people much as Santa Clause is used to regulate children's behavior."
"I've seen my own death in dreams before and it's helped me appreciate life more. I've also seen my life in dreams before and its helped me appreciate death more."
"I can't even stand to watch people in restaurants laughing, having fun, enjoying life. Their pitiful happiness sickens me. And on TV, do people really live like this? Is this all a joke? Do we raise kids to believe in Baywatch, canned laughter, Jenny Jones? Stupid fish-white housewives straining their flabby legs together with Suzanne Somers's Thighmaster? She helped create the dumb blonde stereotype and now she's a fucking infomercial folk hero hawking a worthless contraption that sounds like a porno movie or an Aerosmith song. Fuck blind consumerism. Stupid people deserve what they get. They'd buy shirts that say "I'm fucking stupid" if Cindy Crawford told them it was cool. I'd love to kill all of them, but I'd be doing them a favor. The worst punishment I can give them is to let them wake up every morning and lead their stupid fucking lives, let them raise their stupid fuckinging their stupid fucking homes, and, of course, make a record called Antichrist Superstar, which will annoy and destroy each and
every one of them. Fuck you America. Fuck me. The world spreads its legs for another fucking star."
