There are some dogs which, when you meet them, remind you that, despite thousands of years of manmade evolution, every dog is still only two meals away from being a wolf.

Doctor Who has never pretended to be hard science fiction... At best Doctor Who is a fairytale, with fairytale logic about this wonderful man in this big blue box who at the beginning of every story lands somewhere where there is a problem...

How do I know you'll keep your word? asked Coraline. I swear it, said the other mother. I swear it on my own mother's grave. Does she have a grave? asked Coraline. Oh yes, said the other mother. I put her in there myself. And when I found her trying to crawl out, I put her back.

You know that I love you. And despite herself, Coraline nodded. It was true. The other mother loved her. But she loved Coraline as a miser loves money, or a dragon loves its gold. In the other mother's button eyes, Coraline knew that she was a possession, nothing more. A tolerated pet, whose behavior was no longer amusing.

Stories you read when you're the right age never quite leave you. You may forget who wrote them or what the story was called. Sometimes you'll forget precisely what happened, but if a story touches you it will stay with you, haunting the places in your mind that you rarely ever visit.

Not gay, just never met the right woman.

For some folks death is release, and for others death is an abomination, a terrible thing. But in the end, I'm there for all of them.

Classic authors should be older than I am, and wiser, and on-top of all their deadlines.

When things go wrong, this is what you should do. Make good art.

Everybody has a secret world inside of them. I mean everybody. All of the people in the whole world, I mean everybody — no matter how dull and boring they are on the outside. Inside them they've all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid, amazing worlds... Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands, maybe.

Not knowing everything is all that makes it OK, sometimes.

How old are you? asked Door. Richard was pleased she had asked he would never have dared. As old as my tongue, said Hunter, primly, and a little older than my teeth.

Does it make you feel big to make a little boy cry?

Be boring, knowing everything. You have to give all that stuff up if you're going to muck about here.

Stories are made up by people who make them up. If they work, they get retold. There's the magic of it.

We do what we do, because of who we are. If we did otherwise, we would not be ourselves.
