Maurice Sendak Zitate

Maurice Sendak

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich schreibe Bücher, die eher für Kinder geeignet erscheinen, und das ist okay für mich. Sie sind ein besseres Publikum und härter Kritiker. Kinder sagen Ihnen, was sie denken, nicht was sie denken sollen.

I'm not going to tell a person how to think, don't believe in that. What I want to do, when I write these books, is just to say don't be so sure of yourself. Let me pull the carpet out from underneath you, and let's see if you can still find the footing.
