I don't believe in an afterlife but I still fully expect to see my brother again.

We all want to be renewed, don't we?

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

It's only adults who read the top layers most of the time. I think children read the internal meanings of everything.

Knowledge is the driving force that puts creative passion to work.

The fan mail I get from kids are asking me questions which they do not ask their mothers and fathers. Because if they had, why write to me, a perfect stranger?

I believe there is no part of our lives, our adult as well as child life, when we're not fantasizing, but we prefer to relegate fantasy to children, as though it were some tomfoolery only fit for the immature minds of the young. Children do live in fantasy and reality; they move back and forth very easily in a way we no longer remember how to do.
