I became a set designer for opera.

Kids books Grownup books That's just marketing. Books are books.

I want to be alone and work until the day my heads hits the drawing table and I'm dead. Kaput. I feel very much like I want to be with my brother and sister again. They're nowhere. I know they're nowhere and they don't exist, but if nowhere means that's where they are, that's where I want to be.

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.

I never set out to write books for children. I don't have a feeling that I'm gonna save children or my life is devoted.

There should be a place where only the things you want to happen, happen.

I don't know how to write a children's book.
