More quotes by Neil Gaiman
People talk about books that write themselves, and it's a lie. Books don't write themselves. It takes thought and research and backache and notes and more time and more work than you'd believe.
Neil Gaiman
Words can wound, and wounds can heal.
Neil Gaiman
I am selfish, private and easily bored. Will this be a problem?
Neil Gaiman
You can't make me love you.
Neil Gaiman
Libraries are the thin red line between civilization and barbarism.
Neil Gaiman
You don’t want to ask after the health of anyone, if you’re a funeral director. They think maybe you’re scouting for business.
Neil Gaiman
My very small part in WATCHMEN is that, every now and then, Alan would phone me: ''Neil, you're an educated man. Where does it say...'' He would need a quote from the Bible, or an essay about owls. I was his occasional research assistant.
Neil Gaiman
The young woman was crying, in the way that grownups cry, keeping it inside as much as they can, and hating it when it still pushes out at the edges, making them ugly and funny-looking on the way.
Neil Gaiman
Never use five words if you can get away with one, eh? I've known dead men talk more than you do.
Neil Gaiman
There are stories you build and there are stories you construct then there are the stories that you hack out of rock removing all the things that are not the story.
Neil Gaiman
I make art, sometimes I make true art, and sometimes it fills the empty places in my life. Some of them. Not all.
Neil Gaiman
The war had begun and nobody saw it. The storm was lowering and nobody knew it.
Neil Gaiman
You know, it's weird being interviewed! Because the weird thing about being interviewed is you get asked these questions that you've never thought about, and you find out what you think as you answer.
Neil Gaiman
Yes. We both have a bad feeling. Tonight we shall take our bad feelings and share them, and face them. We shall mourn. We shall drain the bitter dregs of mortality. Pain shared, my brother, is pain not doubled, but halved. No man is an island.
Neil Gaiman
That doesn't happen, she explained. Stars fall. They don't go back up again. You could be the first, he told her.
Neil Gaiman
I like 'pencil-necked weasel'. It has 'pencil' in it. Pencils are good things. You can draw or write things with pencils. I think it's what you call someone when you're worried that using a long word like 'intellectual' may have too many syllables. It's not something that people who have serious, important things to say call other people.
Neil Gaiman
Like the newspapers used to say, if the truth isn't big enough, you print the legend.
Neil Gaiman
She had the feeling that the door was looking at her, which she knew was silly, and knew on a deeper level was somehow true.
Neil Gaiman
Trust dreams. Trust your heart, and trust your story.
Neil Gaiman
There are so many places we have not yet seen. So many people still to meet.
