More quotes by Neil Gaiman
Often you will discover that the harder you work, and the more wisely you work, the luckier you get. But there is luck, and it helps.
Neil Gaiman
I have no plans to love you, said Coraline. No matter what. You can't make me love you.
Neil Gaiman
A book is a dream that you hold in your hands.
Neil Gaiman
I was thinking one of the great things about fiction is we, as a race, only get to look out of our own eyes at the world. And fiction is a fantastic way of looking out through somebody else's eyes.
Neil Gaiman
Doctor Who has never pretended to be hard science fiction... At best Doctor Who is a fairytale, with fairytale logic about this wonderful man in this big blue box who at the beginning of every story lands somewhere where there is a problem...
Neil Gaiman
Now you people have names. That's because you don't know who you are. We know who we are, so we don't need names.
Neil Gaiman
It may help to understand human affairs to be clear that most of the great triumphs and tragedies of history are caused, not by people being fundamentally good or fundamentally bad, but by people being fundamentally people.
Neil Gaiman
As we age, we become our parents live long enough and we see faces repeat in time.
Neil Gaiman
I will be a wise and tolerant monarch, dispencing justice fairly, and only setting nightmares to rip out the winds of the evil and the wicked. Or just anybody that I don't like.
Neil Gaiman
Delirium: 'What's the name of the word for the precise moment when you realize that you've actually forgotten how it felt to make love to somebody you really liked a long time ago?' Dream: 'There isn't one.' Delirium: 'Oh. I thought maybe there was.'
Neil Gaiman
The real problem with stories - if you keep them going long enough, they always end in death.
Neil Gaiman
It's easy, there's a trick to it, you do it or you die.
Neil Gaiman
Writing, and especially writing a novel, where you get to sit in a room by yourself with either a pen and a paper or a computer for a couple of years, is a very solitary occupation. You can read sales figures - a hundred thousand books sold, half a million books sold - but they are just numbers.
Neil Gaiman
I lay on the bed and lost myself in stories. I liked that. Books were safer than other people anyways.
Neil Gaiman
You'll think this is a bit silly, but I'm a bit--well, I have a thing about birds. What, a phobia? Sort of. Well, that's the common term for an irrational fear of birds. What do they call a rational fear of birds, then?
Neil Gaiman
I love mythic stuff. I love playing with gods, I love playing with myths. A lot of it has to do with that they're the basic places stories come from. They're the clay that you make the bricks out of.
Neil Gaiman
Honestly, if you're given the choice between Armageddon or tea, you don't say what kind of tea?
Neil Gaiman
The comic convention itself tends to come second to the giant announcements in Hall H and the movies and the TV. So I think it's always good to remind people that there is a wonderful comic convention going on.
Neil Gaiman
Remember: that giants sleep too soundly that witches are often betrayed by their appetites dragons have one soft spot, somewhere, always hearts can be well-hidden, and you can betray them with your tongue. (from Instructions)
Neil Gaiman
He left the drapes open, watched the lights of the cars and of the fast food joints through the window glass, comforted to know there was another world out there, one he could walk to anytime he wanted.
Neil Gaiman
