Grant Morrison Quotes

I was a clubber in the Nineties. I went dancing every week Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

I run blindly through the madhouse... And I cannot even pray... For I have no God Picture Quote #1

When was the last time you had a thought that wasn’t put there by THEM Picture Quote #1

Before it was a Bomb, the Bomb was an Idea. Superman, however, was a Faster, Stronger, Better Idea Picture Quote #1

Sometimes... sometimes I think the Asylum is a head. We’re inside a huge head that dreams us all into being. Perhaps it’s your head, Batman. Arkham is a looking glass... and we are you Picture Quote #1

Why am I in Hell? It hurts. It hurts all the time. Why am I in Hell? I just want to go home and lie on the bed the way I used to. Please take me home Picture Quote #1

I will rise from the darkness, shining like the morning star. Illuminated woman am I Picture Quote #1

Look at us! Are we not proof that there is no good, no evil, no truth, no reason? Are we not proof that the universe is a drooling idiot with no fashion sense - Mr Nobody on the fundamental philosophy of the Brotherhood of DADA Picture Quote #1

Oh, yes! Fill the churches with dirty thoughts! Introduce honesty to the White House! Write letters in dead languages to people you’ve never met! Paint filthy words on the foreheads of children! Burn your credit cards and wear high heels! Asylum doors stand open! Fill the suburbs with murder and rape! Divine madness! Let there be ecstasy, ecstasy in the streets! Laugh and the world laughs with you! Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

When [Wonder Woman creator William Moulton] Marston died in 1947, they got rid of the pervy elements, and instantly sales plummeted. Wonder Woman should be the most sexually attractive, intelligent, potent woman you can imagine. Instead she became this weird cross between the Virgin Mary and Mary Tyler Moore that didn’t even appeal to girls Picture Quote #1

Gayness is built into Batman. I’m not using gay in the pejorative sense, but Batman is very, very gay. There’s just no denying it. Obviously as a fictional character he’s intended to be heterosexual, but the basis of the whole concept is utterly gay Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Everyone does magic all the time in different ways. ‘Life’ plus ‘significance’ = magic Picture Quote #1

There are dozens of unfinished or aborted projects in my files, but I can only assume they don’t get done because they’re not robust enough to struggle through the birth process Picture Quote #1

I just do what I do because it feels right. Other people attach labels to that Picture Quote #1

He felt the hot impact of bullets. He heard the sound of chopping meat. He thought ‘is that me?’ . . . and then he opened his eyes Picture Quote #1

I think that superhero comics in particular are really useful for talking about big emotions and feelings, and personifying and concretizing symbols Picture Quote #1

I won’t tell you again! Don’t look back! In hell you never look back! Picture Quote #1

And that’s why people read comics, to get away from the way life works, which is quite cruel and unheroic and ends in death Picture Quote #1

I’m the evil mastermind behind the scenes. I’m the wicked puppeteer who pulls the strings and makes you dance. I’m your writer Picture Quote #1

Consciousness, rather than being something that we have, is something we participate in Picture Quote #1
