Just a little quote

Jonathan Carroll just posted this, a quote by another of my favorite authors and one of my favorite quotes from him:

We who make stories know that we tell lies for a living.  But they're good lies that say true things, and we owe it to our readers to build them as best we can.  Because somewhere out there is someone who needs that story.  Someone who will grow up with a different landscape, who without that story will be a different person.  And who with that story may have hope, or wisdom, or kindness, or comfort.
Neil Gaiman
