Girls are infinitely more complicated than boys and women more than men. And theres no doubt about that. We just dont like to think about it. Certainly the men dont like to think about it. – Maurice Sendak
I became a set designer for opera. Im a great opera buff, I love classical music, and I needed a time-out. – Maurice Sendak
What I do as best I can is out of a deep respect for children, for how difficult their world is. – Maurice Sendak
Most children – I know I did when I was a kid – fantasize another set of parents. Or fantasize no parents. They dont tell their real parents about that – you dont want to tell Mom and Dad. Kids lead a very private life. And I was a typical child, I think. I was a liar. – Maurice Sendak
Islam exhorts men to respect and honor women. The status of the wife is so respected in Islam that it is not obligatory for her to do household chores. She may do them of her own accord. But if her husband forces her to do household work, he will have to account for his conduct in the hereafter. – Anon.
