I see myself as an intelligent, sensitive human, with the soul of a clown which forces me to blow it at the most important moments.
Jim MorrisonThatโs 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 pretense...Itโs true, weโre locked in an image, an act - and the sad thing is, people get so used to their image - they grow attached to their masks. They love their chains. They forget all about who they really are. And if you try to remind them, they hate you for it - they feel like youโre trying to steal their most precious possession.
Jim MorrisonEach generation wants new symbols, new people, new names. They want to divorce themselves from their predecessors.
Jim MorrisonI think people resist freedom because they're afraid of the unknown. But it's ironic....That unknown was once very well known. It's where our souls belong....The only solution is to confront them - confront yourself - with the greatest fear imaginable. Expose yourself to your deepest fear. After that, fear has no power, and fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
Jim Morrison
