In countries like the U.S. and Great Britain, we exist in a wholly sexualized culture, where everything from cars to snack food are sold with a healthy slathering of sex to make them more commercially appealing.

More quotes by Alan Moore
The announcement that there is a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen television series hasn't caused me to drastically alter my opinions. Now it seems they are recycling things that have already proven not to work.
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
Artists use lies to tell the truth. Yes, I created a lie. But because you believed it, you found something true about yourself.
Alan Moore
If you give me a typewriter and I'm having a good day, I can write a scene that will astonish its readers. That will perhaps make them laugh, perhaps make them cry - that will have some emotional clout to it. It doesn't cost much to do that.
Alan Moore
It's all a joke! Everything anybody ever valued or struggled for... it's all a monstrous, demented gag! So why can't you see the funny side? Why aren't you laughing?
Alan Moore
A world grows up around me. Am I shaping it, or do its predetermined contours guide my hand?
Alan Moore
I increasingly fear that nothing good can come of almost any adaptation, and obviously that's sweeping. There are a couple of adaptations that are perhaps as good or better than the original work. But the vast majority of them are pointless.
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
But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you. I love you. With all my heart, I love you.
Alan Moore
No. Not even in the face of Armageddon. Never compromise.
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
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
This is not anarchy, Eve. This is chaos.
Alan Moore
Happiness is the most insidious prison of all.
Alan Moore
I've come to think that the universe is a four-dimensional site in which nothing is changing and nothing is moving. The only thing that is moving along the time axis is our consciousness. The past is still there, the future has always been here. Every moment that has existed or will ever exist is all part of this giant hyper-moment of space-time.
Alan Moore
In comics the reader is in complete control of the experience. They can read it at their own pace, and if there's a piece of dialogue that seems to echo something a few pages back, they can flip back and check it out, whereas the audience for a film is being dragged through the experience at the speed of 24 frames per second.
Alan Moore
The world's a stage, & everything else is Vaudeville.
Alan Moore
Truly, whoever we are, wherever we reside, we exist upon the whim of murderers.
Alan Moore
I think that the Occupy movement is, in one sense, the public saying that they should be the ones to decide who's too big to fail.
Alan Moore
I'm not a particularly dark individual. I have my moments, it's true, but I do have a sense of humor.
Alan Moore
