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

I'd like to believe an accumulation of experience has made me a sort of a grown-up person, so I can have judgment and taste and whatever.

Kids lead a very private life.

We're animals. We're violent.

Kids tell you what they think, not what they think they should think.

Mothers and children are human beings, and they will sometimes do the wrong thing.

Childhood is cannibals and psychotics vomiting in your mouth!
