Famous Quotes & Sayings

Alan Moore

I've come to understand and to believe that each of us is more than the worst thing we've ever done. I believe that for every person on the planet.

I think even if you kill someone, you're not just a killer. And because of that, there's this basic human dignity that must be respected by law.

When I was an undergraduate at Princeton, freshman year, first term, I ended up in the course on Plato's Republic. That book just captivated me - not because of the answers, and the answers can be somewhat unsatisfying, but because of the questions, the way you went at it, the methods, the kinds of questions you could ask, the different answers you could get. That's why I'm still fascinated by that book.
