Maurice Sendak Quotes
You can't get rid of evil. We can't, and I feel that so intensely. All the idiots that keep coming into the world and wrecking people's lives. And it is such an abundance of idiocy that you lose courage, okay? That you lose hope - I don't want to lose hope. I get through every day - I'm pretty good - I work. I sleep. I sing. I walk. But, I'm losing hope.
