Image
All that I did, she said, everything I tried to do. All for nothing. Nothing is done entirely for nothing, said the fox of dreams. Nothing is wasted. You are older, and you have made decisions, and you are not the fox you were yesterday. Take what you have learned, and move on.
Neil Gaiman
Image
You don't pass or fail at being a person, dear.
Neil Gaiman

I always say that if you're a novelist, the challenge is not writing what you think ought to happen, but trying in some way to write what did happen in a world that doesn't necessarily exist.
Neil Gaiman
Image
It does not matter where you come from, if you walk toward the truth you will reach it, whatever path you take.
Neil Gaiman
Image
For love is no part of the dreamworld. Love belongs to Desire, and Desire is always cruel.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Because there are mysteries. Because there are things that people are forbidden to speak about. Because there are things they do not remember.
Neil Gaiman
Image
And life is a good thing for a writer. It's where we get our raw material, for a start. We quite like to stop and watch it.
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
Image
Her other mother smiled brightly and the hair on her head drifted like plants under the sea.
Neil Gaiman
Image
When angels go bad they are worse than anyone else. Remember Lucifer used to be an angel.
Neil Gaiman
Image
They also held that the way to salvation was to give way to lust and temptation in all things. And no greater percentage of them turned up here than of any other religion. Amusing, isn't it?
Neil Gaiman
Image
Even if your goose habitually lays golden eggs, it will still be cooked.
Neil Gaiman
Image
If I were only allowed to read or enjoy art or listen to music made by people whose opinions and beliefs were the same as mine, I think the world would be a pretty dismal sort of a place.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Are we human because we gaze at the stars or do we gaze at the stars because we are human?
Neil Gaiman
