19 Famous quotes by David Lloyd
"Our society's need for escapism has always interested me"
David Lloyd
"It's absolutely of no importance who or what V was under the mask. He isn't a who or a what, he's an idea. The thing is, you couldn't continue it. Now and then the idea of a sequel has been raised, in vague forms, but I think it would be a bad idea. The story's finished"
David Lloyd
"I understand why people do vote on the conservative side of the ticket because people have a tendency to go for strong governments when really, from an idealistic point of view, it's a bad thing"
David Lloyd
"The beginning of Book Three is the last one that I drew, where V's conducting the 1812 overture"
David Lloyd
"Kickback is a police thriller which I wrote. I'm very proud of it. I did it in two parts for France because when I wrote it, there wasn't the audience demand for crime stuff that there is now"
David Lloyd
"Alan was always interested in politics in a major way. He actually believes that anarchy is a politically viable system, but I don't. I was always interested in putting forward the ideas that represented my viewpoint. I feel the same about anything I'm doing"
David Lloyd
"They did offer me a chance of being a V in the crowd, but it's not my scene. I think they just thought it would be fun for me to do that, but I don't know. I heard that Stan Lee appears in every movie of his"
David Lloyd
"Part of the plot was a knock that V wanted to bring down the government and bring chaos. I don't know why I thought of Guy Fawkes, because it was during the summer. I thought that would be great if he looked like Guy Fawkes, kind of theatrical"
David Lloyd
"I just sit at the drawing board most of the time. I am used to talking to people. I love going to conventions, getting feedback and talking to people. Some artists don't. Some artists sit at their drawing board because their personality actually dictates that"
David Lloyd
"But if you have a point of view and you're an artist or a writer, it's kind of crazy to not take advantage of that, especially if you can do something that's entertaining as well. I've done a number of things like that over the years"
David Lloyd
"Alan is a great guy, a terrific guy. We haven't worked together since then, and he's always working with different artists. I think he sees different dimensions he can see from different guys"
David Lloyd
"We spend more time developing means of escaping our troubles than we do solving the troubles we're trying to escape from"
David Lloyd
"I'm interested in how artists and writers do this, using art as therapy. Escaping into the worlds we create. We're all victims and few of us are truly free"
David Lloyd
"I do like to work on a Marvel method, so if I've got the opportunity, and the writer is happy to do it, I like to have a writer detail what happens on a page, but not saying what happens in every scene"
David Lloyd
"You are not going to get peace with millions of armed men. The chariot of peace cannot advance over a road littered with cannon"
David Lloyd
"I've always been a liberal and I've always had strong socialist leanings"
David Lloyd
"I'm interested in why people compromise when they shouldn't. It comes back to what V's about in a sense. We've all got ideals, but given the right circumstances, we'll forget about them and put them behind us. I'm very interested in why people do that"
David Lloyd
"When we were talking about this, an idea for this master vigilante, it was an urban guerilla. One of my ideas was that he would be a member of the police force who turned on the government"
David Lloyd
"V is like a mythical situation. It's an allegory for what could happen. V has philosophies within it that actually warn against things like that happening"
David Lloyd
