There is nothing more wonderful than a book. It may be a message to us from the dead, from human souls we never saw who lived perhaps thousands of miles away. And yet these little sheets of paper speak to us, arouse us, teach us, open hour hearts, and in turn open their hearts to us like brothers. Without books God is silent, justice dormant, philosophy lame.

Shirley Ann Manson

Shirley Ann Manson (born August 26, 1966) is a Scottish musician and the lead vocalist of the band Garbage.

She began her career in Edinburgh in the early Eighties, most notably performing backing vocals and keyboards for local band Goodbye Mr. Mackenzie before fronting side-project Angelfish whilst signed as a solo artist. Having seen Manson in an Angelfish video on MTV, Garbage invited Manson to record with them as the band's lead singer.

With Garbage on hiatus after four successful studio albums, one greatest hits compilation and over 14 million record sales , Manson will embark on a solo career and release her own record in 2008.
