Neil Gaiman
Image
We make choices. No one else can live our lives for us. And we must confront and accept the consequences of our actions.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Soon enough his head would be swimming with tales of derring-do and high adventure, tales of beautiful maidens kissed, of evildoers shot with pistols or fought with swords, of bags of gold, of diamonds as big as the tip of your thumb, of lost cities and of vast mountains, of steam-trains and clipper ships, of pampas, oceans, deserts, tundra.

I'd love to think that people in the future would gather in theatres, at conventions, and in darkened rooms, and read it out to each other.

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.

It doesn't matter that I can't remember the details any longer: death happened to her. Death happens to all of us.

Nothing's ever the same, she said. Be it a second later or a hundred years. It's always churning and roiling. And people change as much as oceans.

For me, closing libraries is the equivalent of eating your seed corn to save a little money.

Whatever it takes to finish things, finish. You will learn more from a glorious failure than you ever will from something you never finished.

M is for magic. All the letters are, if you put them together properly. You can make magic with them, and dreams, and, I hope, even a few surprises.

I want to go home. Then he mentally underlined the last sentence three times, rewrote it in huge letters in red ink, and circled it before putting a number of exclamation marks next to it in his mental margin.

The best way to show people true things is from a direction that they had not imagined the truth coming.

I like 'pencil-necked weasel'. It has 'pencil' in it. Pencils are good things. You can draw or write things with pencils.

It's not something that people who have serious, important things to say call other people.
