The ending is nearer than you think, and it is already written. All that we have left to choose is the correct moment to begin.
Alan Moore
Image
I'm not a particularly dark individual. I have my moments, it's true, but I do have a sense of humor.
Alan Moore
Image
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
Image
I didn't put you in a prison, Evey. I just showed you the bars.
Alan Moore
Image
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
Image
Magic and art tend to share a lot of the same language. They both talk about evocation, invocation, and conjuring.
Alan Moore
Image
If you're using sex to sell sneakers, then you're not just selling sneakers, you're selling sex as well, and you're contributing to the sexual temperature of society.

The world's a stage, & everything else is Vaudeville.

I despise the comic industry, but I will always love the comic medium.

Image
As people get more desperate, history suggests that they're not going to rise in a mighty proletarian tidal wave and wash away their oppressors. They're gonna turn on each other.
Alan Moore
Image
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
Image
For me, there is very little difference between magic and art. To me, the ultimate act of magic is to create something from nothing: It's like when the stage magician pulls the rabbit from the hat.

Image
When I hear alcoholics talk about having their demons, I think that they're probably absolutely literally correct.
Alan Moore
Image
Ideas, unlike solid structures, do not perish. They remain immortal, immaterial and everywhere, like all Divine things. Ideas are a golden, savage landscape that we wander unaware, without a map. Be careful: in the last analysis, reality may be exactly what we think it is.
Alan Moore
Image
It wasn't so much all the sex that robbed me of my moral bearings, but all the narcotics. I must say, there's something about opium that goes very well with lesbianism.
Alan Moore
Image
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
Image
Romantic poetry had its heyday when people like Lord Byron were kicking it large. But you try and make a living as a poet today, and you'll find it's very different!

Image
My experience of life is that it is not divided up into genres it’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you're lucky.
Alan Moore
Image
There's no flesh or blood within this cloak to kill. There's only an idea. Ideas are bulletproof.

The dusk reeks of fornication and bad consciences.
