Trees there were, old as trees can be, huge and grasping with hearts black as sin. Strange trees that some said walked in the night.
Neil Gaiman

He was no longer scared of what tomorrow might bring because yesterday has brought it.
Neil Gaiman
Image
You're always you, and that don't change, and you're always changing, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Image
I was kidnapped by aliens, they came down from outer space with ray guns, but I fooled them by wearing a wig and laughing in a foreign accent, and I escaped.

Image
I've never known anyone who was what he or she seemed or at least, was only what he or she seemed. People carry worlds within them.

So the day became one of waiting, which was, he knew, a sin: moments were to be experienced waiting was a sin against both the time that was still to come and the moments one was currently disregarding.

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.)

Image
I think you're doing better than you were the last time we saw you. You're growing a new heart, for a start.
Neil Gaiman
Image
The search for the word gets no easier but nobody else is going to write your novel for you.

Children's fiction is the most important fiction of all.

What I say is, a town isn't a town without a bookstore. It may call itself a town, but unless it's got a bookstore it knows it's not fooling a soul.

Talk is free but the wise man chooses when to spend his words.

My guiltiest pleasure is Harry Stephen Keeler. He may have been the greatest bad writer America has ever produced. Or perhaps the worst great writer. I do not know. There are few faults you can accuse him of that he is not guilty of. But I love him.

Be hole, be dust, be dream, be wind/Be night, be dark, be wish, be mind,/Now slip, now slide, now move unseen,/Above, beneath, betwixt, between.

Image
I never fell. I don't care what they say. I'm still doing my job, as I see it.
Neil Gaiman
Image
All fiction is a process of imagining: whatever you write, in whatever genre or medium, your task is to make things up convincingly and interestingly and new.
Neil Gaiman
Image
I still love the book-ness of books, the smell of books: I am a book fetishist—books to me are the coolest and sexiest and most wonderful things there are.
Neil Gaiman
Image
I love making things. I love building things. I love the idea that something's in the world that wasn't there before.

People think dreams aren't real just because they aren't made of matter, of particles. Dreams are real. But they are made of viewpoints, of images, of memories and puns and lost hopes.
