Life isn't divided into genres
Alan Moore

Of course, Marxism is an example of what Carl Popper would have called a 'World Three' structure, in that it's got immense power as an idea, but you couldn't actually hold up anything in the world and say: 'this is Marxism'.

Image
London has been used as the emblematic English city, but it's far from representative of what life in England is actually about.
Alan Moore
Image
The things we do without the fear of failure and the desire for success are the purest acts we'll ever do
Alan Moore
Image
I still can't believe it . . . him comin' here everyday, nobody realizin'. Still, that's life: lotta stuff happens under the waterline.

I really can't be bothered going to a barber. And shaving every morning, that's nightmarish. I spent my teenage years covered in tiny little bits of toilet paper.
