More quotes by 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
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
I live my life free of compromise, and step into the shadows without complaint or regret.
Alan Moore
Rorschach: Used to come here often, back when we were partners. Dreiberg: Oh. Uh, yeah... yeah, those were great times, Rorschach. Great times. Whatever happened to them? Rorschach: [exiting] You quit.
Alan Moore
Janey accuses me of chasing jailbait. She bursts into angry tears, asking if it's because she's getting older. It's true. She's aging more noticeably every day — while I am standing still. I prefer the stillness here. I am tired of Earth. These people. I am tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives.
Alan Moore
This city is dying of rabies. Is the best I can do to wipe random flecks of foam from its lips?
Alan Moore
Art makes us feel less alone. It makes us think: somebody else has thought this, somebody else has had these feelings.
Alan Moore
They say we have we created the man to end all wars I say we have created a man to end all worlds.
Alan Moore
Everybody has their story to tell.
Alan Moore
How can two people hate so much without knowing each other?
Alan Moore
The more I look at most of the art movements, it's all occultism, when you get down to it. The Surrealists were openly talking about being magicians.
Alan Moore
I genuinely like the people I meet at signings or the bits of public talking that I do.
Alan Moore
Despite the constant clamor for attention from the modern world, I do believe we need to procure a psychological space for ourselves. I apparently know some people who try to achieve this by logging off or going without their Twitter or Facebook for a limited period.
Alan Moore
I suppose all fictional characters, especially in adventure or heroic fiction, at the end of the day are our dreams about ourselves. And sometimes they can be really revealing.
Alan Moore
I am not saying people should not be free to join whichever reason they choose but should we be forced to live our lives around a belief system that originated somewhere around the fourth or fifth century BC. I cannot see any more reason to base a belief system around Christianity, Judaism or Islam than I can around Lord of the Rings.
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
The Here-and-Now demands attention, is more present to us. We dismiss the inner world of our ideas as less important, although most of our immediate physical reality originated only in the mind. The TV, sofa, clock and room, the whole civilisation that contains them once were nothing save ideas.
Alan Moore
There's a widespread cultural barrenness across art and political culture. But there are some pockets of resistance on the extreme margins, like the techno-savvy protest movements, small press, the creator-owned comics, that seem to be getting some signs of hope for the future.
Alan Moore
Behind this mask there is more than just flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea... and ideas are bulletproof.
Alan Moore
We're all puppets, Laurie. I'm just a puppet who can see the strings.
Alan Moore
