One of the things I'm concerned about is that I really want to make sure the races of all the characters are kept. I don't like it when black characters become white in movies, or things like that.

More quotes by Neil Gaiman
There's none so blind as those who will not listen.
Neil Gaiman
We do not always remember the things that do no credit to us. We justify them, cover them in bright lies or with the thick dust of forgetfulness.
Neil Gaiman
As sure as water's wet and days are long and a friend will always disappoint you in the end.
Neil Gaiman
He goes his way. We travel a spiral. The quickest way is sometimes the longest.
Neil Gaiman
It stared at them, and it paused for a hundred years, which transpired in a dozen heart beats.
Neil Gaiman
What power would Hell have if those imprisoned were not able to dream of Heaven?
Neil Gaiman
I asked him if it were a mirage, and he said yes. I said it was a dream, and he agreed, But said it was the desert's dream not his. And he told me that in a year or so, when he had aged enough for any man, then he would walk into the wind, until he saw the tents. This time, he said, he would go on with them.
Neil Gaiman
Writing, and especially writing a novel, where you get to sit in a room by yourself with either a pen and a paper or a computer for a couple of years, is a very solitary occupation. You can read sales figures - a hundred thousand books sold, half a million books sold - but they are just numbers.
Neil Gaiman
They were having an argument as old and comfortable as an armchair, the kind of argument that no one ever really wins or loses but which can go on forever, if both parties are willing.
Neil Gaiman
You can't just boss bacteria around like that, said the younger Mrs. Hempstock. They don't like it. Stuff and silliness, said the old lady. You leave wigglers alone and they'll be carrying on like anything. Show them who's boss and they can't do enough for you. You've tasted my cheese.
Neil Gaiman
I think...that I would rather recollect a life mis-spent on fragile things than spent avoiding moral debt.
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
Just remember, what the French say. No, probably not the French, they've got a president or something. The Brits, maybe, or the Swedes. You know what I mean? No, Matthew. What do they say? The king is dead, that's what they say. The king is dead. Long live the king.
Neil Gaiman
I imagine the world dividing into the people who want to feed their children, and the ones shooting at them.
Neil Gaiman
You are an analog girl, living in a digital world.

Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.
Neil Gaiman
He had had a severe shock some weeks earlier, when, having narrowly failed to capture a large grey-brown hare for his dinner, it had stopped at the edge of the forest, looked at him with disdain, and said, 'Well, I hope you're proud of yourself, that's all,' and had scampered off into the long grass
Neil Gaiman
It's a given that we exist in a world where we have to live in continuity every day no one is immune to that, in life or romance novels. By the same token, it's not something I find terribly important.
Neil Gaiman
Every now and then I'll do little things, a short story or something, that doesn't have any fantastical elements, but mostly I like the power of playing God and I like to imagine things.
Neil Gaiman
For some, it was easier to take the leap from the leafless tree and dance on nothing until dancing was done.
Neil Gaiman
