I want to marry the right one, have children and live in a cute little house somewhere far from here. Somewhere that's still a party but can magically convert into a haven of peace and love. Somewhere far from screaming voices and crashes in the night. A place that I won't just want to get up and leave every five minutes. Basically, a place where I feel safe.
"Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it.
I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote,
“Dear Jim: I loved your card.”
Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.”
That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything.
He saw it, he loved it, he ate it."
