You know what killed off the dinosaurs, Whateley? We did. In one barbecue.
Neil Gaiman
If you have something specific and visible to fear, rather than something that could be anything, it is easier.
Neil Gaiman
If not for Death, they’d be content to simply exist, but with Death, well, their lives will have meaning — a boundary beyond which the living cannot cross.
Neil Gaiman
I guess it's just another one of life's little mysteries. I'm tired of mysteries. Yeah? I think they add a kind of zest to the world. Like salt in a stew.
