More quotes by Alan Moore
The comics medium has some unusual features that do make it very different, in that it's combining a verbal narrative with a visual one that allows for much richer possibilities of transmitting information.
Alan Moore
Knowledge, like air, is vital to life. Like air, no one should be denied it.
Alan Moore
I think that in an increasingly virtual world, lovingly produced artefacts are at a premium.
Alan Moore
In countries like the U.S. and Great Britain, we exist in a wholly sexualized culture, where everything from cars to snack food are sold with a healthy slathering of sex to make them more commercially appealing.
Alan Moore
My mother said I broke her heart...but it was my integrity that was important. Is that so selfish? It sells for so little, but it's all we have left in this place. It is the very last inch of us...but within that inch we are free.
Alan Moore
The superman exists and he's American.
Alan Moore
Here's the thing: If you're monitoring every single thing that goes on in a given culture, if you have all the information that is there to be had, then that is the equivalent of having none of it. How are you going to process that amount of information?
Alan Moore
The things we do without the fear of failure and the desire for success are the purest acts we'll ever do
Alan Moore
This city is dying of rabies. Is the best I can do to wipe random flecks of foam from its lips?
Alan Moore
I'm not personally connected to the Internet, although nearly everyone that I know is, and many of them have a great time and no problems with it. And on the surface you can see that the Internet could go an awful long way to educating, enlightening, informing and connecting the world.
Alan Moore
I'm dependent on writing for a living, so really it's to my advantage to understand how the creative process works. One of the problems is, when you start to do that, in effect you're going to have to step off the edge of science and rationality.
Alan Moore
Art makes us feel less alone. It makes us think: somebody else has thought this, somebody else has had these feelings.
Alan Moore
I really can't be bothered going to a barber. And shaving every morning, that's nightmarish. I spent my teenage years covered in tiny little bits of toilet paper.
Alan Moore
I think that the Occupy movement is, in one sense, the public saying that they should be the ones to decide who's too big to fail.
Alan Moore
While a truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power.
Alan Moore
In the sixties, for anybody to suggest that the government didn't have our best interests at heart and policemen sometimes killed people would have automatically made them a radical firebrand lefty. That's not the case anymore.
Alan Moore
I'd prefer to include sex scenes alongside the adventure scenes and everyday-life scenes, as if they were all part of the same thing. Which of course they are. Sex is not discrete from the rest of our existence.
Alan Moore
Please, don't go. It's lonely. There's a hole in my head as big as the world and it's so very lonely.
Alan Moore
Magic and art tend to share a lot of the same language. They both talk about evocation, invocation, and conjuring.
Alan Moore
Janey accuses me of chasing jailbait. She bursts into angry tears, asking if it's because she's getting older. It's true. She's aging more noticeably every day — while I am standing still. I prefer the stillness here. I am tired of Earth. These people. I am tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives.
Alan Moore
