Quotes by Morrissey

Morrissey

“I believe in freedom of speech and in artistic freedom, ... I also believe in the expression of someones truth. I never thought we would have to justify shows like Gypsy and Grease.”

“I am not trying to titillate, make a statement or insult someones values by presenting those shows,”

“We surveyed attendance at Grease over one weekend and of the 500 people who came to see the show 400 were from out-of-town,”

“At least 50 percent of those attending the two shows said it was their first visit to the theater.”

“When you talk to a patient and they say God, they can have a very different meaning than the one the doctor or medical student might have. We all have to be aware of this. There is absolutely no place for proselytizing a particular religious belief system in the practice of medicine.”

“Even those odds seem a bit short to me,”

“Time will tell, ... If the district has a plan that makes sense to them, then I respect whatever decision they make. But I wouldnt be doing my job if I didnt raise these concerns.”

“It feels great just to know that we helped,”

“We do not see a place for them. We believe the job of securing the borders should be done by professional law enforcement.”

“Ive got news for them, ... Were not simply going to maintain, were going to exceed what weve done. Our best days are ahead of us.”

Disappointment came to me,and booted me,and bruised and hurt me,but thats how people grow up.

Tried living in the real world instead of a shell, but I was bored before I even began.

Dont leave it all unsaid,somewhere in the wasteland of your head.

I can chase you, and I can catch you,but there is nothing I can do to make you mine.

Theres so much destruction all over the world - and all you can do is complain about ME!

Now this might disturb you, but I find Im OK by myself;and I dont need you or your benevolence to make sense.

I was wasting my time, praying for love.For a love that never comes, from someone who does not exist.

I still dont belong to anyone - I am mine.

Last night I dreamt that somebody loved me.No hope, no harm; just another false alarm

Youre not right in the head, and nor am I, and this is why....this is why I like you.
