Neil Gaiman
Lives are snowflakes - unique in detail, forming patterns we have seen before, but as like one another as peas in a pod (and have you ever looked at peas in a pod? I mean, really looked at them? There's not a chance you'd mistake one for another, after a minute's close inspection.)
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
Tools, of course, can be the subtlest of traps.
Neil Gaiman
Google can bring you back 100,000 answers. A librarian can bring you back the right one.
Neil Gaiman
Read the books you love, tell people about authors you like, and don’t worry about it.
Neil Gaiman
It is good for children to find themselves facing the elements of a fairy tale - they are well-equipped to deal with these
Neil Gaiman
Never trust a demon. He has a hundred motives for anything he does... ninety-nine of them, at least, are malevolent.
Neil Gaiman
Dreams are composed of many things, my son. Of images and hopes, of fears and memories. Memories of the past, and memories of the future.
Neil Gaiman
She didn't have a daddy? I asked. No. Did you have a daddy? You're all questions, aren't you? No, love. We never went in for that sort of thing. You only need men if you want to breed more men.
Neil Gaiman
That's sexism, that is. Going around giving people girly presents just because they're a girl.
Neil Gaiman
I don't want whatever I want. Nobody does. Not really. What kind of fun would it be if I just got everything I ever wanted just like that, and it didn't mean anything? What then?
