More quotes by Neil Gaiman
When I was young, I was reading anything and anything I could lay my hands on. I was a veracious-to-the-point-of-insane reader.
Neil Gaiman

Richard did not believe in angels, he never had. He was damned if he was going to start now. Still, it was much easier not to believe in something when it was not actually looking directly at you and saying your name.
Neil Gaiman
There are three things, and three things only, that can lift the pain of mortality and ease the ravages of life. These are wine, women and song.

Neil Gaiman
Freedom of speech gives you the right to stay silent.
Neil Gaiman
I thought I was your destination. Looks like I was just another stop on the line.
Neil Gaiman
Charitably... I think... sometimes, perhaps, one must change or die. And, in the end, there were, perhaps, limits to how much he could let himself change.
Neil Gaiman
We make choices. No one else can live our lives for us. And we must confront and accept the consequences of our actions.
Neil Gaiman
Being brave doesn't mean you aren't scared. Being brave means you are scared, really scared, badly scared, and you do the right thing anyway.
Neil Gaiman
I still love the book-ness of books, the smell of books: I am a book fetishist—books to me are the coolest and sexiest and most wonderful things there are.
Neil Gaiman
You know what my mum once said?’ said Rosie… ‘She said that if a just-married couple put a coin in a jar every time they make love in their first year, and take a coin out for every time that they make love in the years that follow, the jar will never be emptied.’ And this means…?’ Well’, she said. ‘It’s interesting, isn’t it?

Neil Gaiman
