More quotes by Neil Gaiman
Hey, that's life, flick it off if you can't take a joke.
Neil Gaiman
You get ideas from daydreaming. You get ideas from being bored. You get ideas all the time. The only difference between writers and other people is we notice when we're doing it.
Neil Gaiman
There are people who think that things that happen in fiction do not really happen. These people are wrong.
Neil Gaiman
Fiction takes us to places that we would never otherwise go, and puts us behind eyes that are not our own.
Neil Gaiman
The view changes from where you are standing. Words can wound, and wounds can heal. All of these things are true.
Neil Gaiman
Coraline wondered why so few of the adults she met made any sense.
Neil Gaiman
I went away in my head, into a book. That was where I went whenever real life was too hard or too inflexible.
Neil Gaiman
Hunchbacks danced at my wedding for luck. It's a thing you don't see nowadays.
Neil Gaiman
Entropy and optimism: the twin forces that make the world go around.
Neil Gaiman
Sometimes I suspect that we build our traps ourselves, then we back into them, pretending amazement the while.
Neil Gaiman
I noticed a long time ago that the Universe rewards belief systems. It doesn't really matter what you believe - it'll be there and waiting for you if you go and look for it. Decide the universe is, say, run by secret enormous teddy bears, and I can guarantee you'll immediately start running across evidence that this is true.
Neil Gaiman
The future came and went in the mildly discouraging way that futures do.
Neil Gaiman
Life and death are different sides of the same coin.
Neil Gaiman
I wondered how I looked to her, in that place, and knew that even in a place that was nothing but knowledge that was the one thing I could not know. That if I look inward I would see only infinite mirrors staring into myself for eternity.
Neil Gaiman
Trees there were, old as trees can be, huge and grasping with hearts black as sin. Strange trees that some said walked in the night.
Neil Gaiman
I tweet, therefore my entire life has shrunk to 140 character chunks of instant event and predigested gnomic wisdom. And swearing.
Neil Gaiman
So, if a city has a personality, maybe it also has a soul. Maybe it dreams.
Neil Gaiman
Break rules. Leave the world more interesting for your being here.
Neil Gaiman
If you don't know it's impossible it's easier to do.
Neil Gaiman
This is the only country in the world, that worries about what it is. The rest of them know what they are. No one ever needs to go searching for the heart of Norway. Or looks for the soul of Mozambique. They know what they are.
