MARIANNE FAITHFULLAll I can say is I’ve been lucky with my body. Well done, little body. I praise it and say, ‘You’re very good.’
MARIANNE FAITHFULLI want to do movies, but I want to do something that’s good. I don’t want to make any more films until I feel that I’m ready for it. I want to have good work, and a very elegant life. I believe you get what you want.
MARIANNE FAITHFULLWhen you are 18, 19, 20, you’re used to being photographed all the time, in a certain way. So, the narcissism becomes almost out of control. And the way that young women are photographed, they become addicted to this feedback of the image.

MARIANNE FAITHFULLI am not frightened of much, but I wouldn’t like to get ill.
