Neil Gaiman

Neil Gaiman
Be hole, be dust, be dream, be wind/Be night, be dark, be wish, be mind,/Now slip, now slide, now move unseen,/Above, beneath, betwixt, between.
Neil Gaiman
I think of myself as a very lazy author.
Neil Gaiman
If you were close enough to her ruby-red lips you would hear her say, 'I will rise now and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek the one I love.' She is whispering that, and she whispers, 'By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth. Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth. My beloved is mine and I am his.
Neil Gaiman
Without dreams, there could be no despair.
Neil Gaiman
I've been inspired by dreams - I've even stolen scenes or images or characters from them.
Neil Gaiman
I fell for her like a suicide from a bridge.
Neil Gaiman
My people, we stay indoors. We have keyboards. We have darkness. It's quiet.
Neil Gaiman
Science is a way of talking about the universe in words that bind it to a common reality. Magic is a method of talking to the universe in words that it cannot ignore. The two are rarely compatible.
Neil Gaiman
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
On the whole, stories don't write themselves.
Neil Gaiman
The best way to show people true things is from a direction that they had not imagined the truth coming.
