More quotes by Neil Gaiman
May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness.
Neil Gaiman
Name the different kinds of people,’ said Miss Lupescu. ‘Now.’ Bod thought for a moment. ‘The living,’ he said. ‘Er. The dead.’ He stopped. Then, ‘... Cats?’ he offered, uncertainly.
Neil Gaiman
If you want to call it that. But it is a very specific sort of magic. There's a magic you take from death. Something leaves the world, something else comes into it.
Neil Gaiman
It's always too late for sorries, but I appreciate the sentiment.
Neil Gaiman
You can't run away from home without destroying somebody's world.
Neil Gaiman
There's nothing for getting you good fast like having to be good fast, if that makes any sense.
Neil Gaiman
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?

Going to Comic-Con for me is always hard and weird, so it just makes me feel guilty. There's always a hundre thousand people out there who have copies of things that I've written and they really want signed and they're not going to get them signed.
Neil Gaiman
Do not lose hope — what you seek will be found. Trust ghosts. Trust those that you have helped to help you in their turn. Trust dreams. Trust your heart, and trust your story. (from 'Instructions')
Neil Gaiman
Something told him that something was coming to an end. Not the world, exactly. Just the summer. There would be other summers, but there would never be one like this. Ever again.
Neil Gaiman
Her other mother smiled brightly and the hair on her head drifted like plants under the sea.
Neil Gaiman
Like some kind of particularly tenacious vampire the short story refuses to die, and seems at this point in time to be a wonderful length for our generation.
Neil Gaiman
In the case of 'Ocean at the End of the Lane,' it's a book about helplessness. It's a book about family, it's a book about being 7 in a world of people who are bigger than you, and more dangerous, and stepping into territory that you don't entirely understand.
Neil Gaiman
Here you go, she said. I don't need it anymore. I'm very grateful. I think it may have saved my life, saved some other people's death.
Neil Gaiman
I had started to feel that somewhere in the second half of the 20th century, the idea of page-turning as a good thing had been lost. You were getting books that were the equivalent of absolutely beautifully prepared dishes of food that didn't taste like anything much.
Neil Gaiman
Something feels weird, he told Laura. That wasn't the first thing he said to her. The first thing was I love you, because it's a good thing to say if you can mean it, and Shadow did.
Neil Gaiman
We wrapped our dreams in words and patterned the words so that they would live forever, unforgettable.
Neil Gaiman
The world seemed to shimmer a little at the edges.
Neil Gaiman
Most of us only find our own voices after we've sounded like a lot of other people.
Neil Gaiman
I've learned over the years that everything is more or less the same amount of work, so you may as well set your sights high and try and do something really cool.
Neil Gaiman
