I like this quote by him
In an interview earlier this year with Comedy Central Talk Show Host Stephen Colbert, Sendak offered his unvarnished opinion on ebooks. ?F___k Them. I hate those ebooks. They cannot be the future. They may well be. I will be dead. I won?t give a sh_t.?

The Economist has some of the best obits.  1/3 of the time I have no idea who they're talking about but the story told is well worth the listen (I podcast most of the Economist).
