“Jim Morrison: I’ve always been attracted to ideas that were about revolt against authority. I like ideas about the breaking away or overthrowing of established order. I am interested in anything about revolt, disorder, chaos—especially activity that seems to have no meaning. It seems to me to be the road toward freedom. External revolt is a way to bring about internal freedom. Rather than starting inside, I start outside—reach the mental through the physical.”

“We had a theory of the True Rumor, that life wasn't as exciting and romantic as it should be, so you tell things that are false because it is better that images be created. It doesn't matter that they aren't true, so long as they are believed.”

“I'm serious, baby. The Doors are the only western rock band that really gets the heart and soul of Japan. A samurai knows that he can die at any time. That's what makes life precious. And don't even talk to me about lame hippie whiners like John Fogerty and Creedence Clearwater revival. Jim Morrison . . . samurai! John Fogerty . . . ham on rye!”

“He then thanked everyone genuinely for the party &, the bottle emptied, nodded off.
"oh,christ, look! Leon soon cried "Look at Jim!" Leon leaped from his seat. Slumped unconscious in his chair, Jim had managed to extract his penis from his pants & was pissing on the rug.
"jesus!" Bill rushed across the room, grabbed a large crystal goblet & held it under the stream.
To his surprise Jim filled it.
Bill took another goblet from the table & Jim filled that, too, then a third one.
Leon, Frank, Kathy, & Cheri were falling down with laughter.
Afterward, Frank & Kathy took Jim to the Doors' office & dropped him, still asleep on the office couch.”

“I blew into L.A. streaking down the freeway, the song "L.A. Woman" blasting out of the car speakers, the wind in my hair, the music in the wind. The first thing you notice about L.A. is that it’s overflowing with people, tourists, the homeless, the starstruck, it was like an old fashioned boom town, a few ghosts wandered it’s streets but it was still booming, if L.A. lived off the people that were successful, the city would be awfully empty.”

“Prison. Confinement. Incarceration. Up to three years of nothing but four walls for a victimless crime that maybe he didn't commit. That was the prospect facing - contradicting - Jim Morrison, main lyricist and lead singer of the Doors. Who could imagine that the man who lived so free could be reduced to a number in Florida's penal system?”
