Particularly the live ones. -- Grant Morrison

Grant Morrison Quotes : pic 000723910

Grant Morrison Quotes : pic 000729893
It's stupid, I know, but I care. All the things that meant so much when we were young. Under the blankets late at night, listening to long-distance radio. All those things lost now or broken. Can you remember? Can you remember that feeling? Perhaps I ought to go to a doctor. -- Grant Morrison
