“I have nothing now but praise for my life. I’m not unhappy. I cry a lot because I miss people. They die and I can’t stop them. They leave me and I love them more. … What I dread is the isolation. … There are so many beautiful things in the world which I will have to leave when I die, but I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready.”
—Maurice Sendak.
Cried this morning when I found that he had passed, but today I am off to work at the children’s book store, and I will read this book to children.
Thank you Maurice, you made me want to be an artist.
