JIM MORRISON

James Douglas Jim Morrison was an American singer-songwriter and poet, best remembered as the lead singer of Los Angeles rock band The Doors. From a young age, Morrison became infatuated with the works of Friedrich Nietzsche, Arthur Rimbaud and Jack Kerouac, emphasising his high intellect and ability to incorporate their work into his lyrics, making him one of the most artistic and influential singer-songwriters of all time, along with his songwriting partner in The Doors, Robby Krieger.

"There are things known and things unknown and in between are the doors.

Whoever controls the media, controls the mind.

Hatred is a very underes-timated emotion.

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."
