"The most loving parents and relatives commit murder with smiles on their faces. They force us to destroy the person we really are: a subtle kind of murder"
- Jim Morrison
About this Quote
This quote by Jim Morrison talks with the power of socialization and the way in which our moms and dads as well as family members can form our identifications. He recommends that even one of the most caring parents as well as family members can devote a sort of murder, not with physical violence, but with their expectations and demands. They force us to comply with their ideals and also expectations, and in doing so, we are compelled to destroy the individual we really are. This is a refined kind of murder, as it is not done with malignance, but rather with love as well as the need to see us do well. It is a tip that we must be mindful of the expectations we place on ourselves and also others, and that we should make every effort to be real to ourselves and also our own values.

"It's frightening how easy it is to commit murder in America. Just a drink too much. I can see myself doing it. In England, one feels all the social restraints holding one back. But here, anything can happen"
