Quote

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'.

I despise the comic industry, but I will always love the comic medium.
Alan Moore
Image
I'm very distanced from the comics industry. I love the comics medium, but I have no time for the industry.

It seems that every movie is a remake of something that was better when it was first released in a foreign language, as a 1960s TV show, or even as a comic book.

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
A live body and a dead body contain the same number of particles. Structurally, there's no discernible difference. Life and death are unquantifiable abstracts. Why should I be concerned?
Alan Moore
Image
If we can come up with all sorts of imaginative ways in which people die, then I really don't see what the problem is with coming up with imaginative ways in which people can procreate.
Alan Moore
Image
In an era of stress and anxiety, when the present seems unstable and the future unlikely, the natural response is to retreat and withdraw from reality, taking recourse either in fantasies of the future or in modified visions of a half-imagined past.

I've never studied anything formally. I was excluded from school at the age of 17, so I am an autodidact, which is a word that I have taught myself.

The ending is nearer than you think, and it is already written. All that we have left to choose is the correct moment to begin.
Alan Moore
Image
Who? Who is but the form following the function of what, and what I am is a man in a mask.

I felt, if I'm going to react I might as well over react.

Authority, when first detecting chaos at its heels, will entertain the vilest schemes to save its orderly facade.
