“As you grow older, you’ll see white men cheat black men every day of your life, but let me tell you something and don’t you forget it—whenever a white man does that to a black man, no matter who he is, how rich he is, or how fine a family he comes from, that white man is trash”

“One describes a tale best by telling the tale. You see? The way one describes a story, to oneself or to the world, is by telling the story. It is a balancing act and it is a dream.

The tale is the map that is the territory.
You must remember this.”
― Neil Gaiman, American Gods

“If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.”

“Nobody likes being alone that much. I don't go out of my way to make friends, that's all. It just leads to disappointment. ”
