94 Quotes by Brian Molko

Music is about expressing things you can't in everyday life.

I'm tired of being around men all the time. I'm going to start a band called Skirt with three girls and I'll play the guitar and sing backing vocals in drag. I went window shopping when I was in New York, saw a lot of amazing dresses.

Dresses, I find, are impractical in social situations, but I enjoy wearing them a great deal on stage.

I've always found music that is carnal very attractive but not in the most obvious way.

Being so honest in my writing is cathartic.

Placebo is music for outsiders, by outsiders and our gigs are like conventions of outcasts, which is cool.

My mouth has a tendency to get me into trouble, but because I'm so small and I take on people who are lager than me. If someone punched me, I'd get my drummer beat them up.

So, then you find yourself in a situation where you have to do things because they're on offer to you, because you don't have much self-respect left. You just can't say no, even to something that you've never done before. You just can't help yourself.

I'd be interested in finding out if there is a light you walk into, and if you do meet people from your life and walk hand in hand with Jesus. I would hate for my death to be tragic: I'd like to be old when it happens. But hopefully a young death is unlikely.
