I run blindly through the madhouse ... And I cannot even pray ... For I have no God.
Grant Morrison
Image
It’s mostly just you have to convince yourself that there’s nothing else in the room but John Lennon and suddenly things start John Lennon-ing!
Grant Morrison
Image
If this book has made any point clear, I hope it's that things don't have to be real to be true. Or vice versa.
Grant Morrison
Image
It's stupid, I know, but I care. All the things that meant so much when we were young. Under the blankets late at night, listening to long-distance radio. All those things lost now or broken. Can you remember? Can you remember that feeling? Perhaps I ought to go to a doctor.

Unlike novel characters, comic book characters last an eternity. When a character is changed beyond recognition, there's no longer the merchandising aspect.
Grant Morrison
Image
And when it's all done, when there's no one left you'll come back for me. And tell me who I am and why I have to do what I do. And explain 'Eternity.' You'll come back
Grant Morrison
Image
And I ask him why he cuts his arms with a razor. Just fo feel. Just to feel something.
Grant Morrison
Image
The world gets more like Disneyland every day, and it's the same the other way round. I can't explain what I know. Try explaining RED to a DOG and see how fast he gets bored.
Grant Morrison
Image
I prefer working out of strict continuity, because no normal human being can have a firm grip on the constantly shifting bardo-like territory of a comics universe, where entire histories can be erased by a strong enough super-sneeze.
Grant Morrison
Image
I'm at a stage in my career where I don't expect or get too much editorial input into what I'm doing. I have a proven track record of success, so my editors are willing to cut me some slack even when a particular approach is not to their personal taste.

Truth speaks best in the language of poetry and symbolism, I think.
Grant Morrison
Image
The big problem is time. I don't have enough of it to do all the things I think about doing.
Grant Morrison
Image
I love 'Batman.' I love the Adam West 'Batman.' I love the animated 'Batman.' The character of Batman can encompass any interpretation, which is what makes that character so brilliant and why it's survived so many different media.
Grant Morrison
Image
I think the only way you can get something out is to invest some real emotion into it, which means you're already writing about what's going to happen to you, whether you know it or not. That's why I'm always surprised when people talk about writer's block. Because to me, it can't be stopped.

Abandon the 'I', because it's a lie.

Enough madness? Enough? And how do you measure madness? - The Joker

I'm a fan myself, so I try to write the kind of comics I want to read.
Grant Morrison
Image
One must commit acts of the highest treason only when dressed in the most resplendent finery.
Grant Morrison
Image
I just wanted all the wars to be over so that we could spend the money on starships and Mars colonies.

In the world of the superheroes, everything had value, potential, mystery. Any person, thing, or object could be drafted into service in the struggle against darkness and evil - remade as a weapon or a warrior or a superhero. Even a little bee named Michael - after God's own avenging angel - could pitch in to win the battle against wickedness.
