Maurice Sendak
“There is a standard theory about childhood that everybody works from, and critics check whether a picture book has followed the 'rules' about what is right for children, or what is healthy for children, or what we think is right and healthy for children. This comes into conflict all the time with those things that are mysterious. Children are much more catholic in taste; will tolerate ambiguities, peculiarities, and things illogical; will take them into their unconscious and deal with them as best they can.”
Maurice Sendak, Caldecott & Co.: Notes on Books and Pictures

Jade Song, Chlorine

Fiona Murphy
“Even when I am not actively feeling lonely, I know that loneliness is still in my blood. This is what frightens me most of all.”
Fiona Murphy, The Shape of Sound

Naomi Salman
“Sometimes I wish I could forget what’s been happening. Then I remember that’s what I’m most afraid of.”
Naomi Salman, Nothing but the Rain

“I didn’t know this then, but the truth is there’s no such thing as an uncomplicated pregnancy. We all give something up in exchange for our babies. Nearly everyone on this planet was welcomed by the sounds of a woman screaming.”
Danielle Valentine, Delicate Condition
