Neil gaiman QUotes!

I am planning to read this graphic novel by neil gaimen called sandman.i read some of the extracts from the book..and well i must say they were simply brilliant!really interesting stuff!!here are some excerpts from the book:



I doubt I'm any wiser than I was five hundred years back. I'm older. I've been up, and been down, and been up again. Have I learned aught? I've learned from my mistakes, but I've had more time to commit more mistakes.

Hob Gadling, in SANDMAN #13: "Men of Good Fortune"

"If I hear another of your theological paradoxes, I'll scream. Frankly, today I don't care if God exists or not."

"I doubt He feels likewise, Miss Walker."

Rose Walker and Gilbert, in SANDMAN #14: "Collectors"

Desire, listen to me carefully. Remember this. We of the endless are the servants of the living -- we are not their masters. We exist because they know, deep in their hearts, that we exist.

Dream, in SANDMAN #16: "Lost Hearts"

Never trust a demon. He has a hundred motives for anything he does... Ninety-nine of them, at least, are malevolent.

Dream, in SANDMAN #4: "A Hope in Hell"

"I am anti-life, the beast of judgement. I am the dark at the end of everything. The end of universes, gods, worlds … of everything. And what will you be then, Dreamlord?"

"I am hope."

• • Choronzon and Dream, playing the oldest game, in Sandman #4: "A Hope in Hell"

"You say that I have no power? Perhaps you speak truly. But – you say that dreams have no power? Ask yourselves, all of you, what power would hell have if those imprisoned here could not dream of heaven?"

• Lucifer and Dream, in Sandman #4: "A Hope in Hell"

I find myself wondering about humanity. Their attitude to my sister's gift is so strange. Why do they fear the sunless lands? It is as natural to die as it is to be born. But they fear her. Dread her. Feebly they attempt to placate her. They do not love her.

• Dream about Death, in Sandman #8: "The Sound of Her Wings"
