Jim Morrison Quotes

Yoga Powers. To make oneself invisible or small.
To become gigantic and reach to the farthest things.To summon the dead. To exalt senses and perceive inaccessible images, of events on other worlds, in one's deepest inner mind, or in the minds of others.

Inside the dream, button sleep around your body like a glove.
Free now of space and time. Free to dissolve in the streaming summer.
The lords and The new creatures

I drink so I can talk to assholes!.

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


Where's your will to be weird?
Jim Morrison


Really it was a lifestyle that was on trial more than any specific incident.
Jim Morrison


I used to see the universe as a mammoth, peristaltic snake.
I used to see all the people, objects and landscapes as little pictures or facets of the skin; the scales.
I think the peristaltic motion is the basic life movement.
Jim Morrison


I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order to obtain the unknown.
Jim Morrison


People are terrified to be set free – they hold on to their chains. They fight anyone who tries to break those chains. It's their security…How can they expect me or anyone else to set them free if they don't really want to be free?
Jim Morrison

The most loving parents and relatives commit murder with smiles on their faces. They force us to destroy the person we really are: a subtle kind of murder.
Jim Morrison Quotes


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'll never see anything like it ever again... and they won't be able to forget me- ever.
Jim Morrison


A hero is someone who rebels or seems to rebel against the facts of existence and seems to conquer them.
Obviously that can only work at moments. It can't be a lasting thing.
That's not saying that people shouldn't keep trying to rebel against the facts of existence. Who knows, someday we might conquer death
Jim Morrison


Whoever controls the media, controls the mind.
Jim Morrison


I like any reaction I can get with my music. Just 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


As I understand it, paranoia's defined as an irrational fear. But what if the paranoia is real?

Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm
Jim Morrison

I'm a spy in the house of love
I know the dream, that you're dreamin' of
I know the word that you long to hear
I know your deepest, secret fear
Jim Morrison

People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all.
People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit.
Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing.
People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous.
How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up.
People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio.
You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters.
Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality.
If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality.
You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.
Jim Morrison Quotes

I think in art, but especially in films, people are trying to confirm their own existences
Jim Morrison
