We know, we know. When it comes to storycraft, there's no one more quotable than the Quotable himself, Neil Gaiman. And while it goes without saying that Neil Gaiman is casually one of the most important authors of this generation, we thought we'd round up some of his epic writing quotes that you may not have heard before.
Woah.
Right in the feels, Neil.
This adorable quote is from a poem of Neil's, "Sweet Caroline," which he recited at his wedding to the brilliant singer-author-poet-all-around-badass Amanda "Caroline" Palmer.
You know it's true.
Sometimes fewer words is best.
This is one of the best quotes from Gaiman's 1980 album, The Jazz Singer, which was the soundtrack for the film of the same name starring Gaiman.
Don't worry; this is definitely not about Amanda!! It's from "You Don't Bring Me Flowers," Gaiman's 1978 duet with Barbra Streisand.
This is why he's the master. Not only did he remake the classic "My Baby Does the Hanky Panky," he mixes up the words!
"The Pot Smoker's Song" is actually a tongue-in-cheek, anti-drug song. Who would have thought?!
