'Maurice Sendak' Quote
"The childhood in my father's stories would
have been my childhood if my parents hadn't
arbitrarily taken a boat and come to America.
Because of their whim, we didn't die in a
concentration camp. And I've never lost that
sense. It was not fate--not, oh thank God,
we were saved. No, it was whim that made
my father get on a boat-- he wasn't forced
to--and thus we were born here."
