Oh, monsters are scared. That's why they're monsters.
Neil Gaiman
Going off the grid is always good for me. It's the way that I've started books and finished books and gotten myself out of deadline dooms and things.
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
The only thing that kept me going was stories. Stories are hope. They take you out of yourself for a bit, and when you get dropped back in, you're different- you're stronger, you've seen more, you've felt more. Stories are like spiritual currency.
Neil Gaiman
Where magic is concerned, there is always an initial decision, an initial willingness to let it enter your life. If that is not there neither is magic.
Neil Gaiman
Twitter is great and it's glorious and it's easy, but if somebody comes up with something kind of like Twitter tomorrow, that's better or smarter or more useful, in three weeks time, Twitter could more or less be history because that's how fast things go.
Neil Gaiman
Firstly, there no such person as Death. Second, Death's this tall guy with a bone face, like a skeletal monk, with a scythe and an hourglass and a big white horse and a penchant for playing chess with Scandinavians. Third, he doesn't exist either.
Neil Gaiman
You’re alive. That means you have infinite potential. You can do anything, make anything, dream anything.
Neil Gaiman
I found English to be a sort of Thomas Hardy aversion therapy.
Neil Gaiman
That is the eternal folly of man. To be chasing after the sweet flesh, without realizing that it is simply a pretty cover for the bones.
Neil Gaiman
Adult helplessness destroys children. Or it forces them to become tiny adults of their own.
Neil Gaiman
You have to finish things - that's what you learn from, you learn by finishing things.
Neil Gaiman
A good writer should be able to write comedic work that made you laugh, and scary stuff that made you scared, and fantasy or science fiction that imbued you with a sense of wonder, and mainstream journalism that gave you clear and concise information in a way that you wanted it.
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
A library is a place that is a repository of information and gives every citizen equal access to it. That includes health information. And mental health information. It's a community space. It's a place of safety, a haven from the world.
Neil Gaiman
A book is a dream that you hold in your hands.
Neil Gaiman
The sky had never seemed so sky the world had never seemed so world.
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
I mean, maybe I am crazy. I mean, maybe. But if this is all there is, then I don't want to be sane.
Neil Gaiman
It is astonishing just how much of what we are can be tied to the beds we wake up in in the morning, and it is astonishing how fragile that can be.
Neil Gaiman
