More quotes by Neil Gaiman
If it's true that every seven years each cell in your body dies and is replaced, then I have truly inherited my life from a dead man and the misdeeds of those times have been forgiven, and are buried with his bones.
Neil Gaiman
Real life doesn't have to be convincing, but fiction does.
Neil Gaiman
Genre fiction, as Terry Pratchett has pointed out, is a stew. You take stuff out of the pot, you put stuff back. The stew bubbles on.
Neil Gaiman
All your tomorrows start here.
Neil Gaiman
You're a big one,[...] a tall drink of water, but I got to tell you, you don't look too bright. I got a son, stupid as a man who bought his stupid at a two-for-one sale, and you remind me of him.
Neil Gaiman
There's nothing for getting you good fast like having to be good fast, if that makes any sense.
Neil Gaiman
He stared down at the golden curls of the Adversary, Destroyer of Kings, Angel of the Bottomless Pit, Great Beast that is called Dragon, Prince of This World, Father of Lies, Spawn of Satan, and Lord of Darkness. You know, he concluded, after a while, I think he actually looks like an Adam.
Neil Gaiman
For love is no part of the dreamworld. Love belongs to Desire, and Desire is always cruel.
Neil Gaiman
So, you figure they won't notice you're back? sneered the marquis. Just, 'oh look, there's another angel, here, grab a harp and on with the hosannas'?
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
I liked myths. They weren't adult stories and they weren't children's stories. They were better than that. They just were.
Neil Gaiman
The past is always knocking at the door, trying to break through into today.
Neil Gaiman
It doesn't matter that you didn't believe in us, said Mr. Ibis. We believed in you.
Neil Gaiman
I was the kind of kid whose parents would drop him off at the local town library on their way to work, and I'd go and work my way through the children's area.
Neil Gaiman
I think there are several aspects of our marraige we're going to have to work on. Babes, he told her. You're dead. That's one of those aspects, obviously.
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
A library is a place that is a repository of information and gives every citizen equal access to it. That includes health information. And mental health information. It's a community space. It's a place of safety, a haven from the world.
Neil Gaiman
There's none so blind as those who will not listen.
Neil Gaiman
I'm just going to stay here, in the darkness under the arch. I can hear you all out there, trip-trapping, trip-trapping over my bridge. Oh yes, I can hear you. But I'm not coming out.
Neil Gaiman
A good writer should be able to write comedic work that made you laugh, and scary stuff that made you scared, and fantasy or science fiction that imbued you with a sense of wonder, and mainstream journalism that gave you clear and concise information in a way that you wanted it.
