“I had a job, I got ill, I left the job to get better, and while I was getting better, I wrote some stories. I sent them to some publishers and the fifth one who replied said they'd take them. Then they went bankrupt. Then that bankrupt publisher got bought by a bigger firm.

“In the case of 'Ocean at the End of the Lane,' it's a book about helplessness. It's a book about family, it's a book about being 7 in a world of people who are bigger than you, and more dangerous, and stepping into territory that you don't entirely understand.” PeopleWorldBookEndsCasesDangerousOceanBiggerTerritoryLanesHelplessnessAbout Family Author:Neil Gaiman
“Human beings are like detectives. They love a mystery. They love going where the mystery pulls them. What we don't like is a mystery that's solved completely. It's a letdown. It always seems less than what we imagined when the mystery was present. The last scene in `Blow Up' is so perfect because you leave the theater still dreaming.

For me, I want to solve certain things but leave some room to dream.” WantGivingHumansStillsEndsDreamSeemsLastsGuyCertainHuman BeingsPerfectForgetRoomsMysterySceneBiggerTheaterBlowSolveForget ItDetectivesJakeLetdownsChinatown Author:David
