Maurice Sendak
“There should be a place where only the things you want to happen, happen”
Maurice Sendak, Where the Wild Things Are

Katharine S. White
“As the years went by and age overtook her, there was something comical yet touching in her bedraggled appearance on this awesome occasion—the small, hunched-over figure, her studied absorption in the implausible notion that there would be yet another spring, oblivious to the ending of her own days, which she knew perfectly well was near at hand, sitting there with her detailed chart under those dark skies in the dying October, calmly plotting the resurrection. —E. B. White”
Katharine S. White, Onward and Upward in the Garden

Lucille Clifton
“may you kiss
the wind then turn from it
certain that it will
love your back”
Lucille Clifton

Neil Gaiman
“I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes...you're Doing Something.”
Neil Gaiman

Steven  Rowley
“To focus, I think of how dogs are witnesses. How they are present for our most private moments, how they are there when we think of ourselves as alone. They witness our quarrels, our tears, our struggles, our fears, and all of our secret behaviors that we have to hide from our fellow humans. They witness without judgment.”
Steven Rowley, Lily and the Octopus
