More quotes by Neil Gaiman
I realized the other day that about the only author I genuinely read for pure pleasure is one of the worst authors in the world, a guy called Harry Stephen Keeler, a long dead American mystery writer. He was probably the greatest bad writer America ever produced.
Neil Gaiman
I know that the way to be a really successful writer is to write the same kind of book over and over again. Find the kind of thing that people like and just write one of those over and over again. I don't do that. I just keep doing different things.
Neil Gaiman
Going off the grid is always good for me. It's the way that I've started books and finished books and gotten myself out of deadline dooms and things.
Neil Gaiman
Things bloosom in their time. They bud and bloom, blossom and fade. Everything in its time.
Neil Gaiman
If the same object from two different times touches itself, one of two things will happen. Either the Universe will cease to exist. Or three remarkable dwarfs will dance through the streets with flowerpots on their heads.
Neil Gaiman
Picking five favorite books is like picking the five body parts you'd most like not to lose.
Neil Gaiman
You must never imagine, that just because something is funny, it is not also dangerous.
Neil Gaiman
It seems like every time I agree to work with a video game company they go out of business. I stopped because I was starting to feel guilty.
Neil Gaiman
There are little pockets of old time in London, where things and places stay the same, like bubble in amber.
Neil Gaiman
We get to experience the same thing in very different ways with different parts of ourselves.
Neil Gaiman
If you cared enough about your characters, what happened to them was interesting... it's important to care about them, about who they are and what they do...I don't really care whose side they are on, and they can be monstrous on the outside or, worse, on the inside, but you still have to want to spend time with them.
Neil Gaiman
Writing imaginative tales for the young is like sending coals to Newcastle. For coals.
Neil Gaiman
I always say that if you're a novelist, the challenge is not writing what you think ought to happen, but trying in some way to write what did happen in a world that doesn't necessarily exist.
Neil Gaiman
You were her way here, and it's a dangerous thing to be a door.
Neil Gaiman
There are three things, and three things only, that can lift the pain of mortality and ease the ravages of life. These are wine, women and song.
Neil Gaiman
I thought about moving south, about continuing to run, continuing to pretend I was alive. But it was, I knew now, much too late for that. There are doors, after all, between the living and the dead, and they swing in both directions.
Neil Gaiman
As a teenager I wrote to R.A. Lafferty. And he responded, too, with letters that were like R.A. Lafferty short stories, filled with elliptical answers to straight questions and simple answers to complicated ones.
Neil Gaiman
I have world class photographic red-eye pretty much all the time. As a general rule, if it's taken with a flash, I look like I am possessed by the blazing forces of darkness, at least in the eye department.
Neil Gaiman
I learned to write by writing.
Neil Gaiman
I love mythic stuff. I love playing with gods, I love playing with myths. A lot of it has to do with that they're the basic places stories come from. They're the clay that you make the bricks out of.
Neil Gaiman
