Shirley Manson Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Shirley Manson:

I think young artists are always inspiring because they are coming at worlds from a different point of view.

I have a temper on me that could hold back tides.

Shirley Manson

Starbucks is my main fix and it's usually you people working in there - sometimes they're actually shaking. It just makes me feel horrendous because I've been in that situation.

Shirley Manson

People don't associate red hair, pale skin, and freckles with beauty.

Shirley Manson

No, I like being a role model because I know how much comfort my musical idols brought me.

Shirley Manson

I like the feeling that I'm giving young women self-confidence. It sounds so cliched, but it can be very moving.

Shirley Manson

It's definitely an intrinsic part of my makeup that makes me want to see black when everyone else is seeing white.

Shirley Manson

I am a contradictory mess but I see it as my prerogative to change my mood like the weather.

Shirley Manson

Possibly because I grew up not feeling very confident about my own physical appearance, I developed internal devices so that I could integrate into society.

Shirley Manson

I am laughably aggressive, and the rest of the band is very laid back, so we mix well.

Shirley Manson

How you present yourself is nobody's business but your own. The stylists have an opinion. The hair people have an opinion. The fans and the management have opinions. Ultimately, you have to trust that you are the safe-keeper of yourself.

Shirley Manson

It's everywhere, constant criticism of women's appearance in magazines and online. It's not easy to navigate.

Shirley Manson

I've got a lot of stamina and I enjoy people, so having lots of people around doesn't freak me out.

Shirley Manson

I couldn't feel good about myself hanging out in Armani clothes when my girlfriend can't even pay her heating bill. I'd feel foul and I'd be embarrassed.

Shirley Manson

I just want to live my life a little freely and not adhere to any schedule - just make music and have fun.

Shirley Manson

I think young artists are always inspiring because they are coming at worlds from a different point of view.

Shirley Manson

A lot of celebrities just want money, fame, power, fancy cars, houses all over the world and have people bow down to them. To me, that's frightful behaviour.

Shirley Manson

I am not a sexy woman, I'm not beautiful, I'm not a sex kitten, I don't flirt with people, yet I've been tagged more of sex symbol than women who truly are and I that's solely because I don't reveal too much: people are curious.

Shirley Manson

Humans all want to beat the clock but nobody ever does.

Shirley Manson

You don't really hear a female perspective on the radio, because so many of the songs are being written by men.

Shirley Manson

At the end of the day, though, the band members have to be strong. It's down to the individuals in the unit. Listen to me, I'm talking like I'm in the army and this is my squadron.

Shirley Manson

I'm fairly in control and I don't like to flirt particularly. I mean, obviously if I meet someone who I think is hot, of course I'll want to flirt with him, But in general I don't use it in day-to-day life.

Shirley Manson

No, I'm not Shirley the girl, I'm the woman on MTV with the big boots.

Shirley Manson

You have to watch all sides of your advancement, you have to make sure people's bodies and minds are healthy and their morale is cool before you can really go out and play great music.

Shirley Manson

Until we command the exact same salary as every male counterpart, I feel a political desire to stand by other women. If we don't stand together, that equality will never be fully realized, and that bothers me.

Shirley Manson

I don't find any kind of tension very productive, I find it destructive, actually.

Shirley Manson

I would say I'm pretty well at ease with my sexuality, but I'm an individual before I am a female.

Shirley Manson

I have a lot of very close girlfriends and sisters - I'm from an all female family. My father often quips that even the cat was neutered!

Shirley Manson

Mozart was a punk, which people seem to forget. He was a naughty, naughty boy.

Shirley Manson

I think it's a great thing to have failed in life and then pulled yourself up by the boot straps and actually done something, because then you appreciate it more.

Shirley Manson

If you have any opinions at all or if you're even remotely verbal then they're going to call you fiery.

Shirley Manson

I am greedy, and most importantly, game for what's next.

Shirley Manson

That's a difficult question, because to consider yourself a rebel is sort of ridiculous.

Shirley Manson

Selling millions of albums is a sign you've infiltrated the culture.

Shirley Manson

I want to hear an alternative viewpoint, and I don't want girls to be defanged and declawed and pretty and mute.

Shirley Manson

I'm a loud person; I love noise and aggression. I crave contact.

Shirley Manson

We're living in a time when people are struggling to appear perfect.
