You cannot write for children. They're much too complicated. You can only write books that are of interest to them. - Maurice Sendak

There should be a place where only the things you want to happen, happen

I believe there is no part of our lives, our adult as well as child life, when we're not fantasizing, but we prefer to relegate fantasy to children, as though it were some tomfoolery only fit for the immature minds of the young. Children do live in fantasy and reality; they move back and forth very easily in a way we no longer remember how to do.

They leave me and I love them more.
