I have a lot of very close girlfriends and sisters – Im from an all female family. My father often quips that even the cat was neutered! – Shirley Manson
A lot of people these days are not music lovers – they just want to be famous which is a very different thing to what I grew up believing in. – 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 refuse to step inside the ring and fight like a gladiator against my own. Im not playing that game. Any woman who has survived a year or more of making music has my undying respect. – Shirley Manson
