The one place gods inarguably exist is in the human mind.
Alan Moore
Image
There has been a rather unpleasant sensibility apparent in Frank Miller's work for quite a long time.
Alan Moore
Image
Nothing's that simple, not even things that are simply awful.
Alan Moore
Image
Language comes first. It's not that language grows out of consciousness, if you haven't got language, you can't be conscious.
Alan Moore
Image
Life isn't divided into genres
Alan Moore
Image
The roots of the word 'anarchy' are 'an archos,' 'no leaders,' which is not really about the kind of chaos that most people imagine when the word 'anarchy' is mentioned. I think that anarchy is, to the contrary, about taking personal responsibility for yourself.
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
The magician to some degree is trying to drive him or herself mad in a controlled setting, within controlled laws.
Alan Moore
Image
If you look at that incredible burst of fantastic characters that emerged in the late 19th century/early 20th century, you can see so many of the fears and hopes of those times embedded in those characters. Even in throwaway bits of contemporary culture you can often find some penetrating insights into the real world around us.
Alan Moore
Image
Once a man has seen society's black underbelly, he can never turn his back on it. Never pretend, like you do, that it doesn't exist.
Alan Moore
Image
Yes, of course, the whole idea is utterly inane, but to let its predictable inanities blind you to its truly fabulous and breathtaking aspects is to do both oneself and the genre a disservice.
Alan Moore
Image
There is no future. There is no past. Do you see? Time is simultaneous, an intricately structured jewel that humans insist on viewing one edge at a time, when the whole design is visible in every facet.
Alan Moore
Image
It seems strange that my life should end in such a terrible place, but for three years I had roses, and apologized to no one.
Alan Moore
Image
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 increasingly fear that nothing good can come of almost any adaptation, and obviously that's sweeping. There are a couple of adaptations that are perhaps as good or better than the original work. But the vast majority of them are pointless.
Alan Moore
Image
When the persecution of an individual who has exposed an evil is pursued so ruthlessly and yet the evil itself is studiedly ignored, all of us know that there is something very wrong with the way that our society is conducting itself. And if we do not protest in the strongest terms about what is being done in our name, then we become complicit.
Alan Moore

American love — like coke in green glass bottles...they don't make it anymore.
Alan Moore
Image
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
Image
Most of the people who get sent to die in wars are young men who've got a lot of energy and would probably rather, in a better world, be putting that energy into copulation rather than going over there and blowing some other young man's guts out.
Alan Moore

Consciousness, unprovable by scientific standards, is forever, then, the impossible phantom in the predictable biologic machine, and your every thought a genuine supernatural event. Your every thought is a ghost, dancing.
Alan Moore
