When things go wrong, this is what you should do. Make good art.
Neil Gaiman
Read the books you love, tell people about authors you like, and don’t worry about it.
Neil Gaiman
And there never was an apple, in Adam's opinion, that wasn't worth the trouble you got into for eating it.
Neil Gaiman
Stories are made up by people who make them up. If they work, they get retold. There's the magic of it.
Neil Gaiman
Everybody going to be dead one day, just give them time.
Neil Gaiman
You must never imagine, that just because something is funny, it is not also dangerous.
Neil Gaiman
In order for stories to work - for kids and for adults - they should scare. And you should triumph. There's no point in triumphing over evil if the evil isn't scary.
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?
Neil Gaiman
