More quotes by Alan Moore
For whatever the future holds, one thing is certain... It just won't be the same.
Alan Moore
A world grows up around me. Am I shaping it, or do its predetermined contours guide my hand?
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
Love doesn't have a point. Love is the point.
Alan Moore
Way back in the day, when I first started and had delusions of adequacy as a cartoonist, I would listen to music. When I switched to a career as a writer, I would try to listen to music, but if the songs had lyrics they would get in the way of the words I was trying to write. So I switched to listening to purely instrumental pieces.
Alan Moore
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.
Alan Moore
One of the advantages of travelling the world is that you get to know the world broadly. And one of the advantages of staying in one place is that you get to know the world deeply.
Alan Moore
The Conservative Party is a religion in that they are bound together by belief. Almost any organization has its religious aspects.
Alan Moore
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.
Alan Moore
I am but a stranger ... as we all are. Lonely inside our separate skins, we cannot know each others pain and must bear our own in solitude. For my part, I have found that walking soothes it and that, given luck, sometimes we find one to walk besides us ... at least for a little way.
Alan Moore
If we loved Steve Aylett, really loved him in the way that he deserves, a selfless love that genuinely wanted nothing save his happiness and comfort, we'd lobotomise him.
Alan Moore
I still can't believe it . . . him comin' here everyday, nobody realizin'. Still, that's life: lotta stuff happens under the waterline.
Alan Moore
People shouldn't be afraid of their government. Governments should be afraid of their people.
Alan Moore
Nothing's that simple, not even things that are simply awful.
Alan Moore
Once you realize what a joke everything is, being the Comedian is the only thing that makes sense.
Alan Moore
There are two worlds we live in: a material world, bound by the laws of physics, and the world inside our mind, which is just as important.
Alan Moore
Because our entire universe is made up of consciousness, we never really experience the universe directly we just experience our consciousness of the universe, our perception of it, so right, our only universe is perception.
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
Don't leave home without your sword - your intellect.
Alan Moore
If you're functional, it doesn't matter if you're mad.
Alan Moore
