Morrissey quotes:

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

I see the world, it makes me puke,But then I look at you and know,that somewhere there's a someone who can soothe me.

This world, I am afraid, is designed for crashing bores.

These tears I'm wailing,I spill not without reason.Remove them, my dearest love.Take me to the place I've been dreaming of,where the grotesquely lonely meet the grotesquely lonelyand they whisper,just very softly,Please be mine, Dearest Love.
