Quotes

I was the kind of kid whose parents would drop him off at the local town library on their way to work, and I'd go and work my way through the children's area. Neil Gaiman
It's astonishing how much trouble one can get oneself into, if one works at it. And astonishing how much trouble one can get oneself out of, if one assumes that everything will, somehow or other, work out for the best. Neil Gaiman
Librarians are the coolest people out there doing the hardest job out there on the frontlines. And every time I get to encounter or work with librarians, I'm always impressed by their sheer awesomeness. Neil Gaiman
Neil Gaiman quote: "Writing is flying in dreams. When you remember. When you can...."
Writing is flying in dreams. When you remember. When you can. When it works. It's that easy. Neil Gaiman
I had to persuade a dog to swallow a pill. I twittered for advice and I got suggestion after suggestion. Most of them didn't work. 'Put the pill in the sausage.' No - that doesn't work. 'Cheese.' No. Then someone said: 'You wrap it in butter and it will slide down.'I tried it and it worked! And I'd learnt how to give a pill to a dog through the magic of Twitter. Neil Gaiman
The end of the story of Batman is he's dead. Because, in the end, the Batman dies. What else am I going to do? Retire and play golf? It doesn't work that way. It can't. I fight until I drop. And one day, I will drop. Neil Gaiman
Most books on witchcraft will tell you that witches work naked. This is because most books on witchcraft were written by men. Neil Gaiman
Stories are in one way or another mirrors. We use them to explain to ourselves how the world works or how it doesn’t work. Like mirrors stories prepare us for the day to come. They distract us from the things in darkness. Neil Gaiman
This is a work of fiction. All the characters in it, human and otherwise, are imaginary, excepting only certain of the fairy folk, whom it might be unwise to offend by casting doubts on their existence. Or lack thereof. Neil Gaiman
In reality the world is made of thousands of groups of about five hundred people, all of whom will spend their lives bumping into each other, trying to avoid each other, and discovering each other in the same unlikely teashop in Vancouver. There is an unavoidability to this process. It's not even coincidence. It's just the way the world works, with no regard for individuals or propriety. Neil Gaiman
This is a work of fiction. Still, given an infinite number of possible worlds, it must be true on one of them. And if a story set in an infinite number of possible worlds is true in one of them, then it must be true in all of them. So maybe, it's not as fictional as we think. Neil Gaiman
I think there are several aspects of our marraige we're going to have to work on."Babes," he told her. "You're dead."That's one of those aspects, obviously. Neil Gaiman
Neil Gaiman quote: "Stories are made up by people who make them up. If they work,..."
Stories are made up by people who make them up. If they work, they get retold. There's the magic of it. Neil Gaiman
Neil Gaiman quote: "You can always cheat an honest man, but it takes more work."
You can always cheat an honest man, but it takes more work. Neil Gaiman
Remember: when people tell you something's wrong or doesn't work, they are almost always right. When they tell you exactly what's wrong and how to fix it, they are almost always wrong. Neil Gaiman
