Maurice Sendak

I am not a religious person, nor do I have any regrets.

My being gay was something of not great interest to me.

I had a brother who was my savior, made my childhood bearable.

Marriage can be work, it can be difficult, it can be hard, but I think working through those times makes you stronger as a couple and as a unit.

Deep down, there is in the substance of the cosmos a primordial disposition, sui generis, for self-arrangement and self-involution.

As a young child my attention span was, as I remember it, rather short.
