More quotes by Alan Moore
Here's the thing: If you're monitoring every single thing that goes on in a given culture, if you have all the information that is there to be had, then that is the equivalent of having none of it. How are you going to process that amount of information?
Alan Moore
The dusk reeks of fornication and bad consciences.
Alan Moore
I don't think any of us grew up into the world we were hoping for or expecting.
Alan Moore
Look at him now, poor fellow. That's what a dose of reality does for you...Never touch the stuff myself, you understand. Find it gets in the way of the hallucinations.
Alan Moore
I'm not a very shy person. I'm just somebody who's got a lot of work and who doesn't like to parade himself in new celebrity contexts.
Alan Moore
Famously, there's not really anywhere to go after nihilism. It's not progressing toward anything, it's a statement of outrage, however brilliant.
Alan Moore
No one will ever forget that night, and what it meant for this country. But I will never forget the man and what he meant to me.
Alan Moore
Authority allows two roles: the torturer and the tortured. Twists people into joyless mannequins that fear and hate, while culture plunges into the abyss.
Alan Moore
In the human mind, the number of possible connections that can be made between neurons greatly exceeds the number of atoms in the universe.
Alan Moore
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
Every film is a remake of a previous film, or a remake of a television series that everyone loved in the 1960s, or a remake of a television series that everyone hated in the 1960s. Or it's a theme park ride it will soon come to breakfast cereal mascots.
Alan Moore
I was kind of a selfish child, who always wanted things his way, and I've kind of taken that over into my relationship with the world.
Alan Moore
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
How can two people hate so much without knowing each other?
Alan Moore
I don't think there's really any difference between art - or writing, or music - and magic. And I particularly draw the link between magic and writing. I think that they are profoundly connected.
Alan Moore
Right from the outset, the prevailing mindset in British comics fandom was a radical and progressive one. We were all proto-hippies, and we all thought that comics would be greatly improved if everything was a bit psychedelic like Jim Steranko.
Alan Moore
My main point about films is that I don't like the adaptation process, and I particularly don't like the modern way of comic book-film adaptations, where, essentially, the central characters are just franchises that can be worked endlessly to no apparent point.
Alan Moore
All we ever see of stars are their old photographs.
Alan Moore
I am brother to dragons, and companion to owls. My skin is black upon me, and my bones are burned with heat.
Alan Moore
I think that storytelling and creation are very close to what the center of what magic is about. I think not just for me, but for most of the cultures that have had a concept of magic, then the manipulation of language, and words, and thus of stories and fictions, has been very close to the center of it all.
