Neil Gaiman
As we age, we become our parents live long enough and we see faces repeat in time.
Neil Gaiman
Someone killed my Mother and my Father and my Sister? Yes, someone did. A Man? A Man. Which means, said Bod, you're asking the wrong question. Silas raised an eyebrow. How so? Well, said Bod. If I go outside in the world, the question isn't who will keep me safe from him? No? No. It's who will keep him safe

We do not always remember the things that do no credit to us. We justify them, cover them in bright lies or with the thick dust of forgetfulness.

Just remember, what the French say. No, probably not the French, they've got a president or something. The Brits, maybe, or the Swedes. You know what I mean? No, Matthew. What do they say? The king is dead, that's what they say. The king is dead. Long live the king.
Neil Gaiman
We save our lives in such unlikely ways.
Neil Gaiman
I believe we have an obligation to read for pleasure, in private and in public places. If we read for pleasure, if others see us reading, then we learn, we exercise our imaginations. We show others that reading is a good thing.
Neil Gaiman
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.
Neil Gaiman
He wondered whether home was a thing that happened to a place after a while, or if it was something that you found in the end, if you simply walked and waited and willed it long enough.
Neil Gaiman
They also held that the way to salvation was to give way to lust and temptation in all things. And no greater percentage of them turned up here than of any other religion. Amusing, isn't it?
Neil Gaiman
Fiction takes us to places that we would never otherwise go, and puts us behind eyes that are not our own.
