Neil Gaiman

Neil Gaiman
If you want to imagine the future, imagine a boy and his dog and his friends. And a summer that never ends.

Neil Gaiman
People kill what they fear. They burned, and drowned, and hanged those they saw as witches, the devil's servants: the wise women and the cunning men, the unfortunate, the lost and the strange
Neil Gaiman
Life and death are different sides of the same coin.
Neil Gaiman
Being a writer is a very peculiar sort of a job: it's always you versus a blank sheet of paper (or a blank screen) and quite often the blank piece of paper wins.
Neil Gaiman
There's nothing for getting you good fast like having to be good fast, if that makes any sense.
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
Most of us only find our own voices after we've sounded like a lot of other people.
Neil Gaiman
I want to write a play. I'd like to do an original musical. I should probably put together a poetry collection.
Neil Gaiman
The one thing that you have that nobody else has is you. Your voice, your mind, your story, your vision. So write and draw and build and play and dance and live as only you can.
Neil Gaiman
Information and knowledge: two currencies that have never gone out of style.
Neil Gaiman
I really like being able to laugh at my own jokes.
Neil Gaiman
It stared at them, and it paused for a hundred years, which transpired in a dozen heart beats.
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.
