favorite Sandman quotes  | |  A profound part of the Sandman experience is the process of uncovering what Gene Wolfe (in his introduction to Fables and Reflections) calls "cryptic truths". Neil Gaiman is a master at stringing together words that express a unique and singular worldview, thrown casually into an otherwise ordinary conversation or inserted, almost as an afterthought, in the cracks and spaces separating the pages.
What Sandman quote has affected you most? Which line can you recall by heart?
My favorite so far is this:
"Most people want things like a candle-flame, flickering, shifting. You, on the other hand, want like a forest fire." - Desire (Endless Nights)

| | 2.  scarywhitegirl (2476) | 3 years ago |  "Our existence deforms the universe. That's responsibility." - Delirium
Delirium is my favorite character, and I really love it when she just says something so matter of factly that makes so much sense. I also love the fact that even though she is talking about the Endless, it really applies to everyone, in a way.

| | | 3. yamskee (737) | 3 years ago |  my favorite sandman quote:
have you ever been inlove? horrible isnt it. It makes you so vulnerable. it opens up your chest and it opens up your heart and it means someone can get up inside you and mess you up. you build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor so nothing can hurt you then one stupid person wanders into your stupid life....
its quite long.. the quote is said by rose walker.

| | | 5. JohariM (5) | 7 months ago | my favorite quote, that will never leave me and that i can recite by heart, comes from "Season of Mists"
"Walk any path in Destiny's garden and you will be forced to choose, not once, but many times. The paths fork and divide. With each step you take you make a choice, and every choice determines future paths. However, at the end of a lifetime of walking, you might look back and see only one path stretching out behind you or look ahead and see only darkness. Sometimes you dream about the paths of destiny, and speculate, to no purpose. Dream about the paths you took and the paths you didn't take. The paths diverge and branch and reconnect. Some say, not even Destiny himself truly knows where any path will take you, where each twist and turn will lead. But even if Destiny could tell you, he will not. Destiny holds his sectrets. The Garden of Destiny. You would know it if you saw it. After all, you will wander it until you die. Or beyond. For the paths are long and even in death there is no ending to them."
...And why do I know this entire thing? I once had to choose a poem or literary excerpt to recite. This was it. | |
