I'm sick of dour faces
Staring at me from the T.V.
Tower.
I want roses in
my garden bower; dig?

— Jim Morrison An American Prayer (1978)

More quotes by Jim Morrison

People are strange when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down.

This is the strangest life I’ve ever known.

I'll tell you this —
No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn.

It hurts to set you free, but you’ll never follow me.

Don't worry, the operation won't take long and you'll feel much better in the morning.
