On my fortieth birthday, rather than merely bore my friends by having anything as mundane as a midlife crisis I decided it might be more interesting to actually terrify them by going completely mad and declaring myself to be a magician.
Alan Moore
Image
In the human mind, the number of possible connections that can be made between neurons greatly exceeds the number of atoms in the universe.

There's always been this feedback between comics and films. But I think that if you take that analogy too far, if you only see comic books in terms of films, then eventually the best we can end up with is films that don't move. It would make us a poor relation to the movie industry.

Magic and art tend to share a lot of the same language. They both talk about evocation, invocation, and conjuring.
Alan Moore
Image
The announcement that there is a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen television series hasn't caused me to drastically alter my opinions. Now it seems they are recycling things that have already proven not to work.

Never despair. Never surrender.
Alan Moore

It's pretty much a fact that our entire universe is a mental construct. We don't actually deal with reality directly. We simply compose a picture of reality from what's going on in our retinas, in the timpani of our ears, and in our nerve endings.

As I see it, part of the art of being a hero is knowing when you don't need to be one anymore.

Image
I am brother to dragons, and companion to owls. My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat.
Alan Moore
Image
So when you find yourself locked onto an unpleasant train of thought, heading for the places in your past where the screaming is unbearable, remember there's always madness. Madness is the emergency exit.

This is an IMAGINARY STORY...aren't they all?
Alan Moore
Image
There is an inverse relationship between imagination and money.
Alan Moore
Image
All culture must have arisen from cult.
Alan Moore
Image
They say that life's a game, & then they take the board away.

Does the human heart know chasms so abysmal?
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
Culture is just a shambling zombie that repeats what it did in life bits of it drop off, and it doesn't appear to notice.
Alan Moore
Image
I've never really cared much about money. I've got enough to live on. And it's not like I live in a fancy house, it's not like I own a car, and it's not like I ever go on holiday.

Image
We have laboured long to build a heaven, only to find it populated with horrors.

In comics the reader is in complete control of the experience. They can read it at their own pace, and if there's a piece of dialogue that seems to echo something a few pages back, they can flip back and check it out, whereas the audience for a film is being dragged through the experience at the speed of 24 frames per second.
