More quotes by Neil Gaiman
I very rarely want to go back and fix things, because I'm much more interested in the next thing, and in taking what I learned from the things that don't work, and applying them to new things that may work.
Neil Gaiman
You don't get heaven or hell. Do you know the only reward you get for being Batman? You get to be Batman.
Neil Gaiman
There are people who think that things that happen in fiction do not really happen. These people are wrong.
Neil Gaiman
Life is sometimes hard. Things go wrong, in life and in love and in business and in friendship and in health and in all other ways that life can go wrong. And when things get tough, this is what you should do. Make good art.
Neil Gaiman
Here you go, she said. I don't need it anymore. I'm very grateful. I think it may have saved my life, saved some other people's death.
Neil Gaiman
American Gods is about 200,000 words long, and I'm sure there are words that are simply in there 'cause I like them. I know I couldn't justify each and every one of them.
Neil Gaiman
Whatever's happening, she said, eventually, it can all be sorted out. She saw the expression on my face then, worried. Scared even. And she said, After pancakes.
Neil Gaiman
If it's true that every seven years each cell in your body dies and is replaced, then I have truly inherited my life from a dead man and the misdeeds of those times have been forgiven, and are buried with his bones.
Neil Gaiman
Perhaps this is the ultimate freedom, eh, Dreamlord? The freedom to leave.
Neil Gaiman
When most people said I'm psychic, you see, they meant I have an overactive but unoriginal imagination/wear black nail varnish/talk to my budgie when Anathema said it, it sounded as though she was admitting to a hereditary disease which she'd much prefer not to have.
Neil Gaiman
Somebody said that writers are like otters... Otters, if they do a trick and you give them a fish, the next time they'll do a better trick or a different trick because they'd already done that one. And writers tend to be otters. Most of us get pretty bored doing the same trick. We've done it, so let's do something different.
Neil Gaiman
The future had suddenly become unknowable: anything could happen: the train of my life had jumped the rails and headed off across the fields and coming down the lane with me, then.
Neil Gaiman
Books were safer than other people anyway.
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
You see, the outcome of the battle is unimportant. What matters is the chaos, and the slaughter.
Neil Gaiman
I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful.
Neil Gaiman
I wondered how I looked to her, in that place, and knew that even in a place that was nothing but knowledge that was the one thing I could not know. That if I look inward I would see only infinite mirrors staring into myself for eternity.
Neil Gaiman
Names come and names go.
Neil Gaiman
All around me darkness gathers, Fading is the sun that shone, We must speak of other matters, You can be me when I'm gone Flowers gathered in the morning, Afternoon they blossom on, Still are withered in the evening, You can be me when I'm gone.
Neil Gaiman
Adult helplessness destroys children. Or it forces them to become tiny adults of their own.
Neil Gaiman
