More quotes by Neil Gaiman
I think of myself as a very lazy author.
Neil Gaiman
To be a good writer... read a lot and write every day.
Neil Gaiman
I like 'pencil-necked weasel'. It has 'pencil' in it. Pencils are good things. You can draw or write things with pencils. I think it's what you call someone when you're worried that using a long word like 'intellectual' may have too many syllables. It's not something that people who have serious, important things to say call other people.
Neil Gaiman
A disturbing novel about dreams and wishes, a nightmarish distaff monkey's paw of a book that it's impossible to forget. Lisa Tuttle remains our preeminent chronicler of family madness and desire.
Neil Gaiman
Biting's excellent. It's like kissing - only there is a winner.
Neil Gaiman
Coming over from England, I was awe-struck by what Americans do at Halloween. I find it magnificent. In England, you get the occasional fancy dress party.
Neil Gaiman
Never trust a demon. He has a hundred motives for anything he does... ninety-nine of them, at least, are malevolent.
Neil Gaiman
Tomorrow may be hell, but today was a good writing day, and on the good writing days nothing else matters.
Neil Gaiman
Hunchbacks danced at my wedding for luck. It's a thing you don't see nowadays.
Neil Gaiman
I very rarely want to go back and fix things, because I'm much more interested in the next thing, and in taking what I learned from the things that don't work, and applying them to new things that may work.
Neil Gaiman
Sometimes human beings are very much like bees. Bees are fiercely protective of their hive, provided you are outside it. Once you’re in, the workers sort of assume that it must have been cleared by management and take no notice various freeloading insects have evolved a mellifluous existence because of this very fact. Humans act the same way.
Neil Gaiman
When we hold each other, in the darkness, it doesn't make the darkness go away. The bad things are still out there. The nightmares still walking. When we hold each other we feel not safe, but better. It's all right we whisper, I'm here, I love you. and we lie: I'll never leave you. For just a moment or two the darkness doesn't seem so
Neil Gaiman
Every lover is, in his heart, a madman, and, in his head, a minstrel.
Neil Gaiman
When things go wrong, this is what you should do. Make good art.
Neil Gaiman
I think...that I would rather recollect a life mis-spent on fragile things than spent avoiding moral debt.
Neil Gaiman
I've been blogging since February of 2001. When I started blogging, it was a dinosaur blog. It was me and a handful of tyrannosaurs. We'd be writing blog entries like, 'The tyrannosaurus is getting grumpy.'
Neil Gaiman
Also, I've already won all the awards.
Neil Gaiman
There were people you could hug, and then there was Silas.
Neil Gaiman
Nobody actually looks like what they really are on the inside.
Neil Gaiman
So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.
Neil Gaiman
