The idea of this quote originally came from G. K. Chesterton. Neil Gaimen actually just paraphrased the quote into more understandable wording. It’s interesting how quoting works on the web. I’ve seen this quote attributed to Chesterton when his words were quite a bit different. I just find that tidbit interesting. Still, it’s a great quote!
