More From Alan Moore

I am a product of endless books. my father bought all the books he read and never got rid of any of them. there were books in the study, books in the drawing room, books in the cloakroom, books (two deep) in the great bookcase on the landing, books in a bedroom, books piled as high as my shoulder in the cistern attic...in the seemingly endless rainy afternoons i took volume after volume from the shelves. i had always the same certainty of finding a book that was new to me as a man who walks into a field has of finding a new blade of grass.

The books in mo and meggie's house were stacked under tables, on chairs, in the corners of the rooms. there where books in the kitchen and books in the lavatory. books on the tv set and in the closet, small piles of books, tall piles of books, books thick and thin, books old and new. they welcomed meggie down to breakfast with invitingly opened pages; they kept boredom at bay when the weather was bad. and sometimes you fall over them.

The landscape of cinema is not original. not to say there aren't great movies being made, but it's much easier for studios to make movies that have built-in audiences. so it's all remakes, adaptations, a lot of remakes of adaptations.

Almost all the movies i've directed are adaptations. and i think what i found when i went to film school, where they try to push you to find your voice or your thing, is that i got a lot of things out of adaptations.

There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. how often, or on what system, the thought police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. it was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. but at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. you had to live-did live, from habit that became instinct-in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized.
Knowing Police Darkness
I wanted a metamorphosis, a change to fish, to leviathan, to destroyer. i wanted the earth to open up, to swallow everything in one engulfing yawn. i wanted to see the city buried fathoms deep in the bosom of the sea. i wanted to sit in a cave and read by candlelight. i wanted that eye extinguished so that i might have a chance to know my own body, my own desires. i wanted to be alone for a thousand years in order to reflect on what i had seen and heard - and in order to forget.

I'm always keeping an eye on the court. also, when the members of congress came to his office during the budget debacle of a year and a half back and said, "we want to de-fund planned parenthood," he said, "not going to happen." those apparently were more or less his exact words.
