More quotes by Neil Gaiman
After a while it sort of began to rain, which is to say that it was the kind of rain that never comes to a decision about whether it's actually raining or not. Driving in it, you would never have been certain whether or not to turn on your wipers.
Neil Gaiman
Nothing's ever the same, she said. Be it a second later or a hundred years. It's always churning and roiling. And people change as much as oceans.
Neil Gaiman
I found English to be a sort of Thomas Hardy aversion therapy.
Neil Gaiman
In the case of 'Ocean at the End of the Lane,' it's a book about helplessness. It's a book about family, it's a book about being 7 in a world of people who are bigger than you, and more dangerous, and stepping into territory that you don't entirely understand.
Neil Gaiman
There's definitely a feeling with a short story that it's pure story telling. You're not really worried about theme. You're not going to stay with the characters long enough to live your life with them. And you have different kinds of relationships with them.
Neil Gaiman

Neil Gaiman
As sure as water's wet and days are long and a friend will always disappoint you in the end.
Neil Gaiman
You're sick. Sick and evil and weird.

Of course, everyone's parents are embarrassing. It goes with the territory. The nature of parents is to embarrass merely by existing, just as it is the nature of children of a certain age to cringe with embarrassment, shame, and mortification should their parents so much as speak to them on the street.
Neil Gaiman
We are small but we are many We are many we are small We were here before you rose We will be here when you fall
Neil Gaiman
That is the eternal folly of man. To be chasing after the sweet flesh, without realizing that it is simply a pretty cover for the bones.
Neil Gaiman
It seems like every time I agree to work with a video game company they go out of business. I stopped because I was starting to feel guilty.
Neil Gaiman
I'd love to write some porn, but I don't know if I have the right engines. When I was a young man and I was tempted to write porn, imaginary parents would appear over my shoulder and read what I was writing just about the point that I managed to banish the imaginary parents, real children would lean over my shoulder and read what I was writing.
Neil Gaiman
Never trust a demon. He has a hundred motives for anything he does... ninety-nine of them, at least, are malevolent.
Neil Gaiman
I must confess, I have always wondered what lay beyond life, my dear. Yeah, everybody wonders. And sooner or later everybody gets to find out.
Neil Gaiman
For some folks death is release, and for others death is an abomination, a terrible thing. But in the end, I'm there for all of them.
Neil Gaiman
Nobody actually looks like what they really are on the inside.
Neil Gaiman
I just want you to know,' said the girl, coldly, 'that whoever you are and whatever you intend with me, I shall give you no aid of any kind, nor shall I assist you, and I shall do whatever is in my power to frustrate your plans and devices.' And then she added, with feeling, 'Idiot.
Neil Gaiman
I'm somebody who considers happiness a journey, not a destination.
