A nice, easy place for freedom of speech to be eroded is comics, because comics are a natural target whenever an election comes up.

The right song can turn an emperor into a laughingstock, can bring down dynasties.

Ocean is more about ... powerlessness and hopelessness. When we're very small we can't actually do anything - we have no say in what happens, we have no money or resources, we sometimes have no idea what's going on.
Neil Gaiman

I don't know. I had to be something, didn't I?
Neil Gaiman

Richard began to understand darkness: darkness as something solid and real, so much more than a simple absence of light. He felt it touch his skin, questing, moving, exploring: gliding through his mind. It slipped into his lungs, behind his eyes, into his mouth.
Neil Gaiman

Sometimes the way to do what you hope to do will be clear cut, and sometimes it will be almost impossible to decide whether or not you are doing the correct thing, because you'll have to balance your goals and hopes with feeding yourself, paying debts, finding work, settling for what you can get.

When most people said I'm psychic, you see, they meant I have an overactive but unoriginal imagination/wear black nail varnish/talk to my budgie when Anathema said it, it sounded as though she was admitting to a hereditary disease which she'd much prefer not to have.

Books were safer than other people anyway.

There are so many places we have not yet seen. So many people still to meet.

My heart… It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it’s trying to escape because it doesn’t belong to me any more. It belongs to you.

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.'

You know how is it when you love someone? And the hard part, the bad part, the Jerry Springer Show part is that you never stop loving someone. There's always a piece of them in your heart.

All fiction is a process of imagining: whatever you write, in whatever genre or medium, your task is to make things up convincingly and interestingly and new.

The boy had the towering arrogance only seen in the greatest of artists and all nine-year-old boys.

Too much talking these days. Talk talk talk. This country would get along much better if people learned how to suffer in silence.

Human beings do not like being pushed about by gods. They may seem to, on the surface, but somewhere on the inside, underneath it all, they sense it, and they resent it.

I knowed a man in Paphlagonia who'd swallow a live snake every morning, when he got up. He used to say, he was certain of one thing, that nothing worse would happen to him all day. 'Course they made him eat a bowlful of hairy centipedes before they hung him, so maybe that claim was a bit presumptive.
