If you really love a writer, bury her in all your awful and watch as she scrawls her way out.

I’m in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we’re all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we’ll ever have, and I am in love with you.

I don’t like the marginalization of women when the fighting breaks out. We get to fight too. I really wanted that.

When I was a child I pestered my elders for stories. My family would improvise, or read me stories from books. As soon as I was old enough to read, I was one of those children who needed to have a book within reach. I would read a book a day, or more. I wanted stories, and I wanted them always, and I wanted the experience that only fiction could five me: I wanted to be inside them.

Televisions and cinemas were all very well, but these stories happened to other people. The stories I found in books happened inside my head. I was, in some way, there.

It’s the magic of fiction: you take the words and you build them into worlds.

Neil Gaiman (Just Four Words, introduction to Stories: All New Tales)
