We've educated children to think spontaneity is inappropriate.

We're animals. We're violent. We're criminal. And if I've done anything, I've had kids express themselves as they are.

I wish you all good things. Live your life, live your life, live your life.

As a child, I felt that books were holy objects, to be caressed, rapturously sniffed, and devotedly provided for. I gave my life to them. I still do. I continue to do what I did as a child; dream of books, make books and collect books.

Because love is so enormous, the only thing you can think of doing is swallowing the person that you love entirely.

Oh, please don't go — we'll eat you up — we love you so!

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.
