Jim Morrison quotes

ticks off the possibilities. Opens all doors. You can walk through
anyone that suits you.
Jim Morrison
Love cannot save you from your own fate.
Jim Morrison
Music inflames temperament.
Jim Morrison
People fear death even more than pain. It's strange
that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of
death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend.
Jim Morrison
Sex is full of lies. The body tries to tell the
truth. But, it's usually too battered with rules to be heard, and bound
with pretenses so it can hardly move. We cripple ourselves with lies.
Jim Morrison
Some of the worst mistakes of my life have been haircuts.
Jim Morrison
The appeal of cinema lies in the fear of death.

really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your
ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask.

Blake said that the body was the soul's prison unless
the five senses are fully developed and open. He considered the senses
the 'windows of the soul.' When sex involves all the senses intensely,

Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as ravens claws.

Film spectators are quiet vampires.
Jim Morrison
Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone
who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to
feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is
fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be
what he really is.
Jim Morrison
Hatred is a very underestimated emotion.
Jim Morrison
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.
Jim Morrison
I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order to obtain the unknown.

anything to get people to think. I mean if you can get a whole room full
of drunk, stoned people to actually wake up and think, you're doing
something.
Jim Morrison
I like people who shake other people up and make them feel uncomfortable.
Jim Morrison
I see myself as an intelligent, sensitive human, with
the soul of a clown which forces me to blow it at the most important
moments.

Jim Morrison
I think of myself as an intelligent, sensitive human
being with the soul of a clown which always forces me to blow it at the
most important moments.
Jim Morrison
I'm interested in anything about revolt, disorder,
chaos, especially activity that appears to have no meaning. It seems to
me to be the road toward freedom.
Jim Morrison
If my poetry aims to achieve anything, it's to deliver people from the limited ways in which they see and feel.
Jim Morrison
It's like gambling somehow. You go out for a night of
drinking and you don't know where your going to end up the next day. It
could work out good or it could be disastrous. It's like the throw of
the dice.
Jim Morrison
