“Maddy: Dad. I need to know the truth. Are you famous? Me: No. Not really. Maddy: But there are people who know who you are, aren't there? Me: Well, yes. Maddy: And they think you're famous? Me: Some of them do, I suppose, yes. Why? Maddy: Well, you see, I've been looking at people a lot recently. People in cars. And sometimes I think that maybe they're movie stars or people I've seen on the TV. And I thought to myself, "Don't be silly. People on the TV wouldn't just be driving about." But then I thought about you. I mean there are people who'd see you, and go "He wouldn't just be driving about" and you are. So I think probably they are movie stars after all.” - Neil Gaiman [Quoting Maddy Gaiman] 09/20/02
