I'd like to see cartoonists measuring their work by higher standards than how many papers their strips are in and how much money they make.
Bill WattersonI think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long. If we're in each other's dreams, we can play together all night.
Bill WattersonI've been interested in cartooning all my life. I read the comics as a kid, and I did cartoons for high school publications - the newspaper and yearbook and soon. In college, I got interested in political cartooning and did political cartoons.

Bill WattersonCreating a life that reflects your values and satisfies your soul is a rare achievement. In a culture that relentlessly promotes avarice and excess as the good life, a person happy doing his own work is usually considered an eccentric, if not a subversive... To invent your own life's meaning is not easy, but it's still allowed, and I think you'll be happier for the trouble.
