Quote by Maurice Sendak
When I did Bumble-ardy, I was so intensely aware of death. Eugene,

When I did Bumble-ardy, I was so intensely aware of death. Eugene, my friend and partner, was dying here in the house when I did Bumble-ardy. I did Bumble-ardy to save myself. I did not want to die with him. I wanted to live, as any human being does. – Maurice Sendak
