Only the phoenix rises and does not descend. And everything changes. And nothing is truly lost.
Neil Gaiman
Potentially evil. Potentially good, too, I suppose. Just this huge powerful potentiality waiting to be shaped.
Neil Gaiman
Writing, and especially writing a novel, where you get to sit in a room by yourself with either a pen and a paper or a computer for a couple of years, is a very solitary occupation. You can read sales figures - a hundred thousand books sold, half a million books sold - but they are just numbers.
Neil Gaiman
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.
Neil Gaiman
I don't know much more than I did when I was alive. Most of the stuff I know now that I didn't know then I can't put into words.

Nearly' only counts in horseshoes and hand-grenades.
Neil Gaiman
You have to finish things - that's what you learn from, you learn by finishing things.
Neil Gaiman
You made peace,” said the buffalo man. “You took our words and made them your own. They never understood that they were here—and the people who worshiped them were here—because it suits us that they are here. But we can change our minds. And perhaps we will.
Neil Gaiman
The future came and went in the mildly discouraging way that futures do.
Neil Gaiman
I lost some time once. It's always in the last place you look for it.
Neil Gaiman
Oh, monsters are scared. That's why they're monsters.
Neil Gaiman
Not knowing everything is all that makes it OK, sometimes.
Neil Gaiman
The lower you start, the more opportunities you have.
Neil Gaiman
We get to experience the same thing in very different ways with different parts of ourselves.
Neil Gaiman
I didn't like people rewriting my dialogue. I didn't like the fact that we'd start a comic with the Joker, and by the time we inked it, he would have turned into the Scarecrow.
Neil Gaiman
Most books on witchcraft will tell you that witches work naked. This is because most books on witchcraft were written by men.
Neil Gaiman
It is not that I was credulous, simply that I belived in all things dark and dangerous. It was part of my young creed that the night was full of ghosts and witches, hungry and flapping and dressed completely in black.
Neil Gaiman
You'll think this is a bit silly, but I'm a bit--well, I have a thing about birds. What, a phobia? Sort of. Well, that's the common term for an irrational fear of birds. What do they call a rational fear of birds, then?
Neil Gaiman
Actually I didn't shoot a man in Reno just to watch him die, but he could tell I was extremely cross.
