I would infinitely prefer a daughter.

Bumble-Ardy is a very wicked little child as far as I'm concerned. He's not to be trusted.

My life in Brooklyn was in constant danger because of my bad health.

'Hansel and Gretel' is one of the scariest stories ever written! Psychotic mother; stupid, inane father.

I remember how much - when I was a small boy I was taken to see a version of 'Peter Pan.' I detested it. I mean, the sentimental idea that anybody would want to remain a boy.

As a kid, all I thought about was death. But you can't tell your parents that.

I wanted to be acknowledged as an artist, not just some kiddie-book artist.
