More quotes by Alan Moore
People have asked me why I made the first chapter of my first novel so long, and in an invented English. The only answer I can come up with that satisfies me is, 'To keep out the scum.'
Alan Moore
Our environments shape the way we see ourselves. If you have been condemned to live in an area that is pretty evidently a rat-run, then sooner or later you're gonna come to the conclusion that you're a rat.
Alan Moore
Behind this mask there is more than just flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea... and ideas are bulletproof.
Alan Moore
My only problem with fans is when they turn pro. For example, when all the professional writers were fired by DC in the '60s, they brought in a generation of comic book fans who would have paid to have written these stories.
Alan Moore
Material existence is entirely founded on a phantom realm of mind, whose nature and geography are unexplored.
Alan Moore
This is not anarchy, Eve. This is chaos.
Alan Moore
I'm a very smug show-off at heart. I'm altogether too pleased with myself. The big boost for me is to be able to turn out something that I think is pretty marvelous, like 'Lost Girls.' I'm not in it for money, I'm just in it for the glory.
Alan Moore
Please! Don't all leave. Somebody has to do it, don't you see? Somebody has to save the world.
Alan Moore
If I have to have a past, then I prefer it to be multiple choice.
Alan Moore
I should just keep me mouth shut, I just upset people.
Alan Moore
Real life is messy, inconsistent, and it's seldom when anything ever really gets resolved. It's taken me a long time to realize that.
Alan Moore
Who imprisoned me here? Who keeps me here? Who can release me? Who's controlling and constraining my life except...me?
Alan Moore
The magician to some degree is trying to drive him or herself mad in a controlled setting, within controlled laws.
Alan Moore
Who? Who is but the form following the function of what, and what I am is a man in a mask.
Alan Moore
We're all puppets, Laurie. I'm just a puppet who can see the strings.
Alan Moore
It is not the job of artists to give the audience what the audience want. If the audience knew what they needed, then they wouldn’t be the audience. They would be the artist. It is the job of artists to give the audience what they need
Alan Moore
It has occurred to me that the superhero really only originates in America. That seems to be the only country that has produced this phenomenon.
Alan Moore
There's no such thing as quitting. Just sometimes there's a longer pause between relapses.
Alan Moore
Who makes the world? Perhaps the world is not made. Perhaps nothing is made. Perhaps it simply is, has been, will always be there…a clock without a craftsman.
Alan Moore
All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy. That's how far the world is from where I am. Just one bad day.
Alan Moore
