“It’s a New Year and with it comes a fresh opportunity to shape our world. So this is my wish, a wish for me as much as it is a wish for you: in the world to come, let us be brave – let us walk into the dark without fear, and step into the unknown with smiles on our faces, even if we’re faking them. 
And whatever happens to us, whatever we make, whatever we learn, let us take joy in it. We can find joy in the world if it’s joy we’re looking for, we can take joy in the act of creation. So that is my wish for you, and for me. Bravery and joy.”

-Neil Gaiman’s NY2013 wish

"Stories you read when you’re the right age never quite leave you. You may forget who wrote them or what the story was called. Sometimes you’ll forget precisely what happened, but if a story touches you it will stay with you, haunting the places in your mind that you rarely ever visit."

I loved this exchange so much, I just spent a stupid amount of time turning it into a mediocre graphic. Neil, you complete me.

I love living in a world where I write something on Tumblr and the following day it’s an excellent graphic. Thank you!

The Sandman. by Stephen Criscolo on Flickr.

All Bette’s stories have happy endings. That’s because she knows where to stop. She’s realized the real problem with stories — if you keep them going long enough, they always end in death. Sandman #6: “24 Hours” “And then she woke up.” I suppose there are worse endings. Rose Walker in Sandman #16: “Lost Hearts”
