Neil Gaiman

And now go, and make interesting mistakes, make amazing mistakes, make glorious and fantastic mistakes. Break rules. Leave the world more interesting for your being here.

Someone has defined genius as intensity of purpose: the ability todo, the patience to wait. Put these together and you have achievement.

The world’s most deadly disease is hardening of the attitudes.

There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress.

Getting up and moving forward is a choice.

Unite to win. Divide to conquer.

If something is going to affect your life, it’s best to know as much as you can about it.

Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.

You can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them.

I did not breeze in there thinking: ‘I’m going to nail this.’ My heart rate was not low when I was doing the Golden Globes. I wanted to do well. It’s very bizarre to be in a room where everybody in your audience is famous. But also: it’s an awards show!

If you can dream it, then you can achieve it.

A narrow mind and a fat head invariably come on the same person.

I’ve got to confess I’m a pragmatic optimist myself.

Be yourself. No one else can be you.

I once dieted so religiously I quit eating in church.
