If you do not value libraries then you do not value information or culture or wisdom. You are silencing the voices of the past and you are damaging the future.
Neil GaimanWe writers โ and especially writers for children, but all writers โ have an obligation to our readers: it's the obligation to write true things, especially important when we are creating tales of people who do not exist in places that never were โ to understand that truth is not in what happens but what it tells us about who we are. Fiction is the lie that tells the truth, after all.
Neil GaimanThe world is always ending for someone. Itโs a good line. I give it to the father of the child. He says it to his wife. โThe world is always ending for someone,โ he says. She is trying to quieten the baby, and does not hear him. I doubt that it would matter if she did.
Neil GaimanI remembered something somebody had once said to me. It's okay. Everyday is freshly ground.
Neil GaimanThe best thingโin Shadow's opinion, perhaps the only good thingโabout being in prison was a feeling of relief. The feeling that he'd plunged as low as he could plunge and he'd hit bottom. He didn't worry that the man was going to get him, because the man had got him. He was no longer scared of what tomorrow might bring, because yesterday had brought it.
