Quote

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.

An Angel who did not so much Fall as Saunter Vaguely Downwards.

I liked myths. They weren't adult stories and they weren't children's stories. They were better than that. They just were.

I lost some time once. It's always in the last place you look for it.
Neil Gaiman

There are some as are what they are. And there are some as aren't what they seem to be. And there are some as only seem to be what they seem to be.

If I come back, it will be a place, but it won't be a home any longer.
Neil Gaiman

But libraries are about freedom. Freedom to read, freedom of ideas, freedom of communication. They are about education (which is not a process that finishes the day we leave school or university), about entertainment, about making safe spaces, and about access to information.

Discontent is a good thing: discontented people can modify and improve their worlds, leave them better, leave them different.

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.

So, having found a lady, could you not have come to her aid, or left her alone? Why drag her into your foolishness?' 'Love,' he explained. She looked at him with eyes the blue of the sky. 'I hope you choke on it,' she said, flatly.

Dreams are composed of many things, my son. Of images and hopes, of fears and memories. Memories of the past, and memories of the future.
