Jim Morrison's quotes
- [Los Angeles, California, 1969] Let's just say I was testing the bounds of reality. I was curious to see what would happen. That's all it was: just curiosity.
- I've always been attracted to ideas that were about revolt against authority. When you make peace with authority, you become an authority.
- A friend is someone who gives you the complete freedom to be yourself.
- 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 crucial moments.
- Erotic politicians, that's what we are. We're interested in everything about revolt, disorder, and all activity that appears to have no meaning.
- [on what it took to gain entrance to his circle] You gotta get smashed and make a fool of yourself in a public place. You gotta get eighty-sixed from seven nightclubs. That's the Irish thing. I hang around mostly with the Irish - and the Italians.
- I see myself as a huge fiery comet, a shooting star. Everyone stops, points up and gasps "Oh look at that!" Then - whoosh, and I'm gone... and they will never see anything like it ever again... and they won't be able to forget me - ever.
- Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
- 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.
