Lynda Barry

I believe a kid who is playing is not alone. There is something brought alive during play, and this something, when played with, seems to play back.

The library was open for one hour after school let out. I hid there, looking at art books and reading poetry.

In life there are always these things happening if you can just get the joke.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.

I literally in the New York flea market - just when I was despairing of ever having a great serendipitous find - found a 1926 Chanel.

They said I couldn't play anything but an English boy. I knew I could. So I went to New York.
