More quotes by Neil Gaiman
We...we could be friends.' We COULD be rare specimens of an exotic breed of dancing African elephants, but we're not. At least, I'M not.
Neil Gaiman
I never fell. I don't care what they say. I'm still doing my job, as I see it.
Neil Gaiman
Nobody looks like what they really are on the inside. You don’t. I don’t. People are much more complicated than that. It’s true of everybody.
Neil Gaiman
I wondered if that was true: if they were all really children wrapped up in adult bodies, like children's books hidden in the middle of dull, long adult books, the kind with no pictures or conversations.
Neil Gaiman
Behind the curtain's mystic fold The glowing future lies unrolled.
Neil Gaiman
I watch with envious eyes and mind, the single-souled who dare not feel The wind that blows beyond the moon, who do not hear the fairy reel
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
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.
Neil Gaiman
I felt very much like a hooker who had just been told she was a lady of the evening.
Neil Gaiman
Agnes was the worst prophet that's ever existed. Because she was always right. That's why the book never sold.
Neil Gaiman
Being a writer is a very peculiar sort of a job: it's always you versus a blank sheet of paper (or a blank screen) and quite often the blank piece of paper wins.
Neil Gaiman
Children, as I have said, use back ways and hidden paths, while adults take roads and official paths.
Neil Gaiman
She had such unusual eyes. They made me think of the seaside, and so I called her Ocean, and could not have told you why.
Neil Gaiman
It may help to understand human affairs to be clear that most of the great triumphs and tragedies of history are caused, not by people being fundamentally good or fundamentally bad, but by people being fundamentally people.
Neil Gaiman
You know what killed off the dinosaurs, Whateley? We did. In one barbecue.
Neil Gaiman
Never mind. There. For good or bad. It's done.
Neil Gaiman
I have world class photographic red-eye pretty much all the time. As a general rule, if it's taken with a flash, I look like I am possessed by the blazing forces of darkness, at least in the eye department.
Neil Gaiman
People pursue things. As soon as they have them they run away from them.
Neil Gaiman
I love learning. I tend to stop doing things once I get good at them, and to try something else I'm not as good at, leaving a bunch of fans going, But he was really good at that. Why isn't he still doing it?
Neil Gaiman
I believe that mankind's destiny lies in the stars.
