Have you ever spent days and days and days making up flavors of ice cream that no one's ever eaten before? Like chicken and telepone ice cream? Green mouse ice cream was the worst. I didn't like that at all.

More quotes by Neil Gaiman
I asked him if it were a mirage, and he said yes. I said it was a dream, and he agreed, But said it was the desert's dream not his. And he told me that in a year or so, when he had aged enough for any man, then he would walk into the wind, until he saw the tents. This time, he said, he would go on with them.
Neil Gaiman
Of course you don't believe in fairies. You're fifteen. You think I believed in fairies at fifteen? Took me until I was at least a hundred and forty. Hundred and fifty, maybe. Anyway, he wasn't a fairy. He was a librarian. All right?
Neil Gaiman
Google can bring you back 100,000 answers. A librarian can bring you back the right one.
Neil Gaiman
I believe that stories are incredibly important, possibly in ways we don't understand, in allowing us to make sense of our lives, in allowing us to escape our lives, in giving us empathy and in creating the world that we live in.
Neil Gaiman
Don't worry about trying to develop a style. Style is what you can't help doing. If you write enough, you draw enough, you'll have a style, whether you want it or not. Don't worry about whether you're commercial. Tell your own stories, draw your own pictures. Let other people follow you.
Neil Gaiman
What are these fundamental principles, if they are not atoms? Stories. And they give me hope.
Neil Gaiman
I suppose the point you grow up is the point you let the dreams go.
Neil Gaiman
For some, it was easier to take the leap from the leafless tree and dance on nothing until dancing was done.
Neil Gaiman
If writing a novel is a year's exile to a foreign country, writing a short story is a weekend spent somewhere exotic. They're much more like vacations, more exciting and different, and you're off.
Neil Gaiman
I was kidnapped by aliens, they came down from outer space with ray guns, but I fooled them by wearing a wig and laughing in a foreign accent, and I escaped.
Neil Gaiman
Sometimes the best way to learn something is by doing it wrong and looking at what you did.
Neil Gaiman
People tend to find books when they are ready for them.
Neil Gaiman
Some of the things are the same no matter which world you're in, kid. One of 'em is this: The quickest way out of something is usually straight through it.
Neil Gaiman
I think I love my dreaming process because one of the things that my dreaming process does is sort out stories for me.
Neil Gaiman
The end of the story of Batman is he's dead. Because, in the end, the Batman dies. What else am I going to do? Retire and play golf? It doesn't work that way. It can't. I fight until I drop. And one day, I will drop.
Neil Gaiman
As a teenager I wrote to R.A. Lafferty. And he responded, too, with letters that were like R.A. Lafferty short stories, filled with elliptical answers to straight questions and simple answers to complicated ones.
Neil Gaiman
'Doctor Who' was the first mythology that I learned, before ever I ran into Greek or Roman or Egyptian mythologies.
Neil Gaiman
I was not scared of anything, when I read my book.
Neil Gaiman
I've never known anyone who was what he or she seemed or at least, was only what he or she seemed. People carry worlds within them.
Neil Gaiman
I remembered that, and, remembering that, I remembered everything.
