"...read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful..."

One of the charming gentlemen on rec.arts.comics.strips posted the following New Year's quote, written by writer and artist Neil Gaiman in 2001, and which Mr. Gaiman has posted on his website journal each year since.

May your 2006 be filled with magic and dreams and good madness. I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful, and don't to forget make some art - write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can. And I hope, somewhere in 2006, you surprise yourself.
