I like people who shake other people up and make them feel uncomfortable.
Jim Morrison
Image
I am troubled, immeasurably by your eyes. I am struck by the feather of your soft reply. The sound of glass speaks quick, disdain and conceals what your eyes fight to explain.
Jim Morrison
Image
Is everybody in?... Is everybody in?... Is everybody in? The ceremony is about to begin... The program for this evening is not new. You've seen this entertainment through and through. You've seen your birth, your life and death. You might recall all the rest. Did you have a good world when you died? Enough to base a movie on?
Jim Morrison

Cinema, heir of alchemy, last of an erotic science.

It may have been in pieces, but I gave you the best of me.

Jim Morrison
Image
We have assembled inside this ancient / and insane theatre / To propagate our lust for life / and flee the swarming wisdom / of the streets

The world becomes an apparently infinite, yet possibly finite, card game. Image combinations, permutations, comprise the world game.
Jim Morrison
Image
A hero is someone who rebels, or seems to rebel, against the facts of existence and seems to conquer them, but obviously that can work at moments.
Jim Morrison
Image
No one thought up being. He who thinks he has, step forward.
Jim Morrison

Where's your will to be weird?
Jim Morrison
Image
Maybe primitive people have less bullshit to let go of, to give up. A person has to be willing to give up everything—not just wealth. All the bullshit he's been taught—all society's brainwashing. You have to let go of all that to get to the other side. Most people aren't willing to do that.

I think, in these days, especially in the States, you have to be a politician or an assassin or something, to really be a superstar.
Jim Morrison
Image
I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos-especially activity that seems to have no meaning. It seems to me to be the road toward freedom... Rather than starting inside, I start outside and reach the mental through the physical.

Image
When sex involves all the senses intensely, it can be like a mystical experience.
Jim Morrison
Image
I like any reaction I can get with my music. Just anything to get people to think.

Getting drunk . . . you're in complete control up to a point. It's your choice, every time you take a sip. You have a lot of small choices. It's like . . . I guess it's the difference between suicide and slow capitulation . . .
