"A role villain has to ruin things and break stuff and make changes . . . "

This was a quote from Marylin Manson in a recent SPIN magazine interview:

[Q: Oh, do you consider yourself a role model?"
A: I consider myself a role villain. A role model is a fucking mannequin. A role villain has to ruin things and break stuff and make changes. The villain has to put things in the world that cause problems and ask questions. There's no story that anyone has ever seen, read, or loved where they don't like the villain, even if they don't want to admit it. The villain is the guy that makes the change. The hero is never the star of the story. "]

The light can't exist without the dark right? There can't be good without bad. Ying fucking yang.
