As I see it, part of the art of being a hero is knowing when you don't need to be one anymore.
Alan Moore
Image
I love films that are made with almost no budget.
Alan Moore

If light is outlawed, then only outlaws will be able to see where they're going.
Alan Moore
Image
Noise is relative to the silence preceeding it. The more absolute the hush, the more shocking the thunderclap. Our masters have not heard the peoples voice for generations, Evey and it is much, much louder than they care to remember.
Alan Moore
Image
There is no coincidence. Only the illusion of coincidence.
Alan Moore
Image
To some degree Satanism is purely a kind of disease of Christianity. You've got to really be Christian to believe in Satan.
Alan Moore
Image
The Here-and-Now demands attention, is more present to us. We dismiss the inner world of our ideas as less important, although most of our immediate physical reality originated only in the mind. The TV, sofa, clock and room, the whole civilisation that contains them once were nothing save ideas.

Remember, remember the fifth of November of gunpowder treason and plot. I know of no reason why the gun powder treason should ever be forgot.
Alan Moore
Image
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
Image
I think that in an increasingly virtual world, lovingly produced artefacts are at a premium.
Alan Moore
Image
The past can't hurt you anymore. Not unless you let it. They made you into a victim, Evey. They made you into a statistic. But, that's not the real you. That's not who you are inside.
Alan Moore
Image
It's only those exceptional and rare individuals who have brilliant ideas delivered to them by the muse, complete and gift wrapped. The rest of us have to work at it.
Alan Moore
Image
Please! Don't all leave. Somebody has to do it, don't you see? Somebody has to save the world.
Alan Moore
Image
Now everything is wonderful and hazardous and nothing's hypothetical.
Alan Moore
Image
We have laboured long to build a heaven, only to find it populated with horrors.
Alan Moore
Image
Everybody has their story to tell.
Alan Moore
Image
I've never watched any of the adaptations of my books. I've never wanted to, and there's absolutely no chance of me doing so in the future.
Alan Moore
Image
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
Image
It's early days. A few skeletons are bound to keep jumping out of the closet.
Alan Moore
Image
You've got to be able to pay your bills, otherwise you're not going to sleep at night. But beyond that, the world inside my head has always been a far richer place than the world outside it. I suppose that a lot of my art and writing are meant to bring the two together.
