Man's greatest fear is chaos.
Be like you and make a difference.
I've been able to watch and to weather a lot of different periods in entertainment, politics and life.
The difference between me as Brian Warner or Marilyn Manson is just words. Same personality, sensibility, sense of humor, behavior. He is me.
I often obsess so much about things that I can't get done, that I ruin other things.
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'

I like Kylie Minogue sometimes - I like a lot of unusual stuff... I don't know - I like Justin Timberlake over Lady Gaga, just musically.

I did vote Obama. But I've never believed in the authenticity of the two-party system.
