Recounting the strange is like telling one's dreams: one can communicate the events of a dream, but not the emotional content, the way that a dream can colour one's entire day.
Neil Gaiman
A philosopher once asked, Are we human because we gaze at the stars, or do we gaze at them because we are human? Pointless, really...Do the stars gaze back? Now that's a question.

Neil Gaiman
Never a possession, always the possessor, with skin as pale as smoke, and eyes tawny and sharp as yellow wine: Desire is everything you have ever wanted. Whoever you are. Whatever you are. Everything.
Neil Gaiman
He left the drapes open, watched the lights of the cars and of the fast food joints through the window glass, comforted to know there was another world out there, one he could walk to anytime he wanted.
Neil Gaiman
Face your life, its pain, its pleasure, leave no path untaken.
Neil Gaiman
Trust dreams. Trust your heart, and trust your story.
Neil Gaiman
However you must have sensed a lurking 'but' skulking beneath my happy, blithe, and chipper exterior. A minuscule vexation, like the teeniest lump of raw liver sticking to the inside of my boot.
Neil Gaiman
This is how you can tell a real photographer: mostly, a real photographer does not say 'I wish I had my camera on me right now'. Instead a real photographer pulls out her camera and takes the photograph.
Neil Gaiman
As we age, we become our parents live long enough and we see faces repeat in time.
Neil Gaiman
Nobody will ever hurt her. She’ll just smile her faint vague wonderful smile and walk away.
Neil Gaiman
I believe that all men are just overgrown boys with deep problems communicating.
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
I already killed you once today, what does it take to teach some people?
Neil Gaiman
If you go to space, you'll look down and see no national boundaries. You'll never see the gods people are killing each other over, but they're incredibly real.
Neil Gaiman
You don't get explanations in real life. You just get moments that are absolutely, utterly, inexplicably odd.
