I was thinking one of the great things about fiction is we, as a race, only get to look out of our own eyes at the world. And fiction is a fantastic way of looking out through somebody else's eyes.
Neil Gaiman
Image
You know what the really scary thing about bad dreams? It's that something's going on in your head, and you can't control it. I mean, It's like there's these bad worlds inside you. But it's just you... it's like you're betraying yourself.
Neil Gaiman
Image
As sure as water's wet and days are long and a friend will always disappoint you in the end.
Neil Gaiman

There are people who think that things that happen in fiction do not really happen. These people are wrong.
Neil Gaiman
Image
You must never imagine, that just because something is funny, it is not also dangerous.
Neil Gaiman

Love isn't quite desire... Love is probably a little bit in The Sandman's domain. Love is partly a dream, it's partly to do with desire, and sometimes it's partly to do with death, as well. It's also very often something to do with delirium.

There are so many places we have not yet seen. So many people still to meet.
Neil Gaiman

I'd love to think that people in the future would gather in theatres, at conventions, and in darkened rooms, and read it out to each other.

Image
What should I believe? thought Shadow, and the voice came back to him from somewhere deep beneath the world, in a bass rumble: Believe everything.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Sometimes big things happen, and they echo. Those echoes crash across worlds. They are the ripples in the fabric of things. Often they manifest as storms. Reality is a fragile thing, after all.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Is the chemical aftertaste the reason why people eat hot dogs, or is it some kind of bonus?
Neil Gaiman
Image
Joy and sorrow are like milk and cookies. That's how well they go together.
Neil Gaiman
Image
We are small but we are many We are many we are small We were here before you rose We will be here when you fall

You don't pass or fail at being a person, dear.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Richard began to understand darkness: darkness as something solid and real, so much more than a simple absence of light. He felt it touch his skin, questing, moving, exploring: gliding through his mind. It slipped into his lungs, behind his eyes, into his mouth.

It begins, as most things begin, with a song.
Neil Gaiman
Image
There are three things, and three things only, that can lift the pain of mortality and ease the ravages of life. These are wine, women and song.
Neil Gaiman
Image
There are some as are what they are. And there are some as aren't what they seem to be. And there are some as only seem to be what they seem to be.
Neil Gaiman
Image
There is something about riding a unicorn, for those people who still can, which is unlike any other experience: exhilarating, and intoxicating, and fine.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Songs remain. They last...A song can last long after the events and the people in it are dust and dreams and gone. That's the power of songs.
