“But the wild things cried, “Oh please don’t go - we’ll eat you up - we love you so!”And Max said, “No!”The wild things roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws but Max stepped into his private boat and waved goodbye.”
-Maurice Sendak, Where the Wilds Things Are
Maurice Sendak, speaker of truth and creator of works of art for young children, passed away today at the age of 83.
"I cry a lot because I miss people. They die and I can't stop them. They leave me and I love them more."
- Maurice Sendak
