Quote

I'm a stranger, pointed out Bod. You're not, she said, definitely. You're a little boy. And then she said, And you're my friend. So you can't be a stranger.

There are little pockets of old time in London, where things and places stay the same, like bubble in amber.
Neil Gaiman

He couldn’t see why people made such a fuss about people eating their silly old fruit anyway, but life would be a lot less fun if they didn’t. And there was never an apple, in Adam’s opinion, that wasn’t worth the trouble you got into for eating it.

People talk about books that write themselves, and it's a lie. Books don't write themselves. It takes thought and research and backache and notes and more time and more work than you'd believe.

I walk across the dreaming sands under the pale moon: through the dreams of countries and cities, past dreams of places long gone and times beyond recall.

Nobody actually looks like what they really are on the inside.

There will always be people who are much better at doing this or doing that, but you are the only you.

And did I pass? The face of the old woman on my right was unreadable in the gathering dusk. On my left the younger woman said, You don't pass or fail at being a person, dear.

You can't make me love you.

Now you people have names. That's because you don't know who you are. We know who we are, so we don't need names.

I personally have a great deal of respect for readers. I have a great deal of respect for the human race. I think most people can tell the difference between fiction and fact. I think that the action of writing about something does not condone it. The best thing I can ever hope to do is provide good questions, and I think I do that. I hope I do.

I think hell is something you carry around with you, not somewhere you go.
Neil Gaiman
Image
We wrapped our dreams in words and patterned the words so that they would live forever, unforgettable.
Neil Gaiman
Image
I move from dreamer to dreamer, from dream to dream, hunting for what I need. Slipping and sliding and flickering through the dreams and the dreamer will wake, and wonder why this dream seemed different, wonder how real their lives can truly be.

Nice' in a bodyguard is about as useful as the ability to regurgitate whole lobsters.

Sometimes human beings are very much like bees. Bees are fiercely protective of their hive, provided you are outside it. Once you’re in, the workers sort of assume that it must have been cleared by management and take no notice various freeloading insects have evolved a mellifluous existence because of this very fact. Humans act the same way.

You could fire a machine gun randomly through the pages of Lord of the Rings and never hit any women.

If he didn't care about you, you couldn't upset him.

The past is always knocking at the door, trying to break through into today.

Then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life... You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore.

I do not miss childhood, but I miss the way I took pleasure in small things, even as greater things crumbled. I could not control the world I was in, could not walk away from things or people or moments that hurt, but I took joy in the things that made me happy.
