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.

More quotes by Grant Morrison
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.
Grant Morrison
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
I have to confess I'm not a huge comics fan in the wider sense of comics as an art form.
Grant Morrison
Talking to oneself, I have often thought, is the best way to be sure of intelligent and witty conversation.
Grant Morrison
Whatever you do, make sure you go right to the top, because you sure as hell can't piss upwards on people.
Grant Morrison
I can always see ways to improve what I've done. At the same time, knowing it's all an ongoing life's work allows me to be less precious about blind alleys, failed experiments, and misfires.
Grant Morrison
The perfect fascist state needs to operate in conditions of perpetual warfare. Have you ever noticed how the world has been in constant crisis since World War II?
Grant Morrison
It's salt. Why don't you sprinkle some on me, honey? Aren't I just good enough to eat?
Grant Morrison
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.
Grant Morrison
Enough madness? Enough? And how do you measure madness? - The Joker
Grant Morrison
It's so horrible to realize you're just the same as everyone else, isn't it?
Grant Morrison
From now on, I'm opting for ontological terrorism.
Grant Morrison
Who needs girls when you've got comics?
Grant Morrison
I just wanted all the wars to be over so that we could spend the money on starships and Mars colonies.
Grant Morrison
We've always known we'd eventually be called upon to open our shirts and save the day, and the superhero was a crude, hopeful attempt to talk about how we all might feel on that day of great power, and great responsibility.
Grant Morrison
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.
Grant Morrison
Kipling: Where's your sense of humor? Rebis: We're working on reconstructing it.
Grant Morrison
I'm a fan myself, so I try to write the kind of comics I want to read.
Grant Morrison
I write every day, for most of the day, so it's just about turning into metaphor whatever's going on in my life, in the world, and in my head. Every nightmare, every moment of grief or joy or failure, is a moment I can convert into cash via words. I use everything. Turning life into stories is how I make sense of my experience.
Grant Morrison
I was a clubber in the Nineties. I went dancing every week.
