More quotes by Neil Gaiman
I kept starting 'Anansi Boys' as a movie and stopping, and eventually wrote the novel and was happy.
Neil Gaiman
Kim Newman's Anno Dracula is back in print, and we must celebrate. It was the first mash-up of literature, history and vampires, and now, in a world in which vampires are everywhere, it's still the best, and its bite is just as sharp. Compulsory reading, commentary, and mindgame: glorious.
Neil Gaiman
All fiction is a process of imagining: whatever you write, in whatever genre or medium, your task is to make things up convincingly and interestingly and new.
Neil Gaiman
Have you ever had one of those days when something just seems to be trying to tell you somebody?
Neil Gaiman
My people, we stay indoors. We have keyboards. We have darkness. It's quiet.
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
Set your fantasies in the here and now and then, if challenged, claim to be writing Magical Realism.
Neil Gaiman
Too soon, the sun will rise.
Neil Gaiman
I make art, sometimes I make true art, and sometimes it fills the empty places in my life. Some of them. Not all.
Neil Gaiman
I went away in my head, into a book. That was where I went whenever real life was too hard or too inflexible.
Neil Gaiman
If you go to space, you'll look down and see no national boundaries. You'll never see the gods people are killing each other over, but they're incredibly real.
Neil Gaiman
I was thinking one of the great things about fiction is we, as a race, only get to look out of our own eyes at the world. And fiction is a fantastic way of looking out through somebody else's eyes.
Neil Gaiman
If he didn't care about you, you couldn't upset him.
Neil Gaiman
Richard opened his hand, and the key stared up at him from his palm. By my crooked teeth, asked Richard, remembering, who am I?
Neil Gaiman
I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're Doing Something.
Neil Gaiman
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.
Neil Gaiman
Trust dreams. Trust your heart, and trust your story.
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
I am anti-life, the Beast of Judgment. I am the dark at the end of everything. The end of universes, gods, worlds…of everything. And what will you be then, Dreamlord? I am hope.
Neil Gaiman
How can you be happy in this world? You have a hole in your heart. You have a gateway inside you to lands beyond the world you know. They will call you, as you grow.
Neil Gaiman
