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.

More quotes by Alan Moore
There has been a rather unpleasant sensibility apparent in Frank Miller's work for quite a long time.
Alan Moore
Real life is messy, inconsistent, and it's seldom when anything ever really gets resolved. It's taken me a long time to realize that.
Alan Moore
Magic is a state of mind. It is often portrayed as very black and gothic, and that is because certain practitioners played that up for a sense of power and prestige. That is a disservice. Magic is very colorful. Of this, I am sure.
Alan Moore
Looked at sky through smoke heavy with human fat and God was not there. The cold, suffocating dark goes on forever and we are alone. Live our lives, lacking anything better to do. Devise reason later. Born from oblivion bear children, hell-bound as ourselves, go into oblivion. There is nothing else.
Alan Moore
This is not anarchy, Eve. This is chaos.
Alan Moore
There are people. There are stories. The people think they shape the stories, but the reverse if often closer to the truth. Stories shape the world. They exist independently of people, and in places quite devoid of man, there may yet be mythologies.
Alan Moore
This is an IMAGINARY STORY...aren't they all?
Alan Moore
A lot of people have found the idea of living your life over and over again absolutely terrifying there's some people that find it very comforting. There are others that are appalled by it.
Alan Moore
Since mankind's dawn, a handful of oppressors have accepted the responsibility over our lives that we should have accepted for ourselves. By doing so, they took our power. By doing nothing, we gave it away. We've seen where their way leads, through camps and wars, towards the slaughterhouse.
Alan Moore
Every film is a remake of a previous film, or a remake of a television series that everyone loved in the 1960s, or a remake of a television series that everyone hated in the 1960s. Or it's a theme park ride it will soon come to breakfast cereal mascots.
Alan Moore
Roses are red Violets are blue Everything's possible Nothing is true.
Alan Moore
There is an inverse relationship between imagination and money.
Alan Moore
Authority allows two roles: the torturer and the tortured. Twists people into joyless mannequins that fear and hate, while culture plunges into the abyss.
Alan Moore
To paint comic books as childish and illiterate is lazy. A lot of comic books are very literate - unlike most films.
Alan Moore
Of course, Marxism is an example of what Carl Popper would have called a 'World Three' structure, in that it's got immense power as an idea, but you couldn't actually hold up anything in the world and say: 'this is Marxism'.
Alan Moore
Our environments shape the way we see ourselves. If you have been condemned to live in an area that is pretty evidently a rat-run, then sooner or later you're gonna come to the conclusion that you're a rat.
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
I'm remote from most technology to the point that I'm kind of Amish.
Alan Moore
It has occurred to me that the superhero really only originates in America. That seems to be the only country that has produced this phenomenon.
Alan Moore
I'm very distanced from the comics industry. I love the comics medium, but I have no time for the industry.
