Nothing's that simple, not even things that are simply awful.
Alan Moore
Image
Everybody has their story to tell.
Alan Moore
Image
Memory's so treacherous. One moment you're lost in a carnival of delights with poignant childhood aromas, the flashing neon on puberty, all that sentimental candyfloss. The next, it leads you somewhere you don't want to go.. Somewhere dark and cold, filled with the damp ambiguous shapes of things you'd hoped were forgotten.
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.
Alan Moore
Image
There's no flesh or blood within this cloak to kill. There's only an idea. Ideas are bulletproof.
Alan Moore
Image
I'm very distanced from the comics industry. I love the comics medium, but I have no time for the industry.
Alan Moore
Image
If the audience knew what they wanted then they wouldn't be the audience, they would be the artist.
Alan Moore
Image
Is it meaningless to apologize? Never.
Alan Moore
Image
I don't really have any great interest in writing for movies. Comics, to me, is a much more promising field. There's still a lot of ground to be broken in comics, whereas movies, to a degree... I don't know. They're a wonderful art form, but they're not my favorite art form. They might not even be in the top five of my favorite art forms.
Alan Moore
Image
Who? Who is but the form following the function of what, and what I am is a man in a mask.
Alan Moore
Image
Authority, when first detecting chaos at its heels, will entertain the vilest schemes to save its orderly facade.
Alan Moore
Image
I did it thirty-five minutes ago.
Alan Moore
Image
To me, all creativity is magic. Ideas start out in the empty void of your head - and they end up as a material thing, like a book you can hold in your hand. That is the magical process. It's an alchemical thing. Yes, we do get the gold out of it but that's not the most important thing. It's the work itself.
Alan Moore
Image
In countries like the U.S. and Great Britain, we exist in a wholly sexualized culture, where everything from cars to snack food are sold with a healthy slathering of sex to make them more commercially appealing.
Alan Moore
Image
But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you. I love you. With all my heart, I love you.
Alan Moore
Image
Certainly, my many years working in the comics industry, creating products that I do not own, has made me rather fierce on the subject of giving up rights.
Alan Moore
Image
None of you understand. I'm not locked up in here with YOU. You're locked up in here with ME.
Alan Moore
Image
Love your rage, not your cage.
Alan Moore
Image
I think I'm a bit like a kind of shark, that if I stop swimming, I won't be able to breathe, something like that.
Alan Moore

If you're functional, it doesn't matter if you're mad.
