More quotes by Neil Gaiman
Dreams are composed of many things, my son. Of images and hopes, of fears and memories. Memories of the past, and memories of the future.
Neil Gaiman
She had such unusual eyes. They made me think of the seaside, and so I called her Ocean, and could not have told you why.
Neil Gaiman
I was a book-y child. I was much more book-y than dark.
Neil Gaiman
I toyed briefly with an image someone once mentioned to me, of a village in the shadow of a twin-peaked mountain. In the morning the sun rises. At lunch it sets behind the mountain. In the early afternoon it rises once more. The cocks crow for the second time, and later the sun sets again. No. One peak. Metaphors should not be belaboured.
Neil Gaiman
In Hollywood the man who cleans your pool is an actor. The man who sells you your copy of Variety is an actor. I don't think there's a real person left in the place.
Neil Gaiman
It is going to take more than just a couple of good-hearted souls to raise this child. It will take a graveyard.
Neil Gaiman
Richard did not believe in angels, he never had. He was damned if he was going to start now. Still, it was much easier not to believe in something when it was not actually looking directly at you and saying your name.
Neil Gaiman
The real problem with stories - if you keep them going long enough, they always end in death.
Neil Gaiman
Never a possession, always the possessor, with skin as pale as smoke, and eyes tawny and sharp as yellow wine: Desire is everything you have ever wanted. Whoever you are. Whatever you are. Everything.
Neil Gaiman
Sometimes human beings are very much like bees. Bees are fiercely protective of their hive, provided you are outside it. Once you’re in, the workers sort of assume that it must have been cleared by management and take no notice various freeloading insects have evolved a mellifluous existence because of this very fact. Humans act the same way.
Neil Gaiman
Richard opened his hand, and the key stared up at him from his palm. By my crooked teeth, asked Richard, remembering, who am I?
Neil Gaiman
There's nothing for getting you good fast like having to be good fast, if that makes any sense.
Neil Gaiman
Then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life... You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore.
Neil Gaiman
Writing may or may not be your salvation it might or might not be your destiny. But that does not matter. What matters right now are the words, one after another. Find the next word. Write it down.
Neil Gaiman
I'm willing to make a fool out of myself in public. I'm also willing to make those mistakes that you're going to make the first time you go out, so hopefully the next time it will be better.
Neil Gaiman
You made peace,” said the buffalo man. “You took our words and made them your own. They never understood that they were here—and the people who worshiped them were here—because it suits us that they are here. But we can change our minds. And perhaps we will.
Neil Gaiman
I imagine the world dividing into the people who want to feed their children, and the ones shooting at them.
Neil Gaiman
It goes without saying that all of the people, living, dead, and otherwise, in this story are fictional or used in a fictional context. Only the gods are real.
Neil Gaiman
Agnes was the worst prophet that's ever existed. Because she was always right. That's why the book never sold.
Neil Gaiman
We do what we do, because of who we are. If we did otherwise, we would not be ourselves.
Neil Gaiman
