Best 46 Quotes by Jim Morrison – Page 2 of 2

“Once you make peace with authority you become an authority.”

“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullsh*t. 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.”

“People are strange when you're a stranger.”

“That's what real love amounts to – letting a person be what he really is. Most people love you for who you pretend to be. To keep their love, you keep pretending- performing. You get to love your pretence. It's true, we're locked in an image, an act.”

“The future is uncertain but the end is always near.”

“The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can't be any large-scale revolution until there's a personal revolution, on an individual level. It's got to happen inside first.”

“There are no laws, there are no rules, just grab your friend and love him.”

“There's nothing wrong with being a large mammal.”

“This is the strangest life I have ever known.”

“Time to live, time to lie, time to laugh, and time to die. Take it easy baby. Take it as it comes.”

“We fear violence less than our own feelings. Personal, private, solitary pain is more terrifying than what anyone else can inflict.”

“When others demand that we become the people they want us to be, they force us to destroy the person we really are. It's a subtle kind of murder... The most loving parents and relatives commit this murder with smiles on their faces.”

“Where's your will to be weird?”

“Whoever controls the media, controls the mind.”

“You feel your strength in the experience of pain.”
