We owe it to each other to tell stories. - Neil Gaiman

"I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes...you're Doing Something."

"Set your fantasies in the here and now and then, if challenged, claim to be writing Magical Realism."

"Because if you don't stand up for the stuff you don't like, when they come for the stuff you do like, you've already lost."

"Read. Read anything. Read the things they say are good for you, and the things they claim are junk. You'll find what you need to find. Just read."

"A book is a dream that you hold in your hands."(As quoted on BookRiot, June 18, 2013)"
