Rainy days should be spent at home with a cup of tea and a good book.

I like maxims that don't encourage behavior modification.

Saturday morning cartoons do that now, where they develop the toy and then draw the cartoon around it, and the result is the cartoon is a commercial for the toy and the toy is a commercial for the cartoon. The same thing's happening now in comic strips; it's just another way to get the competitive edge. You saturate all the different markets and allow each other to advertise the other, and it's the best of all possible worlds. You can see the financial incentive to work that way. I just think it's to the detriment of integrity in comic strip art.

Good friends are hard to come by... I need more money.

I think most of us would be horrified to meet ourselves and discover what everyone else already knows about us.

Obviously the great thing about this job is the complete freedom of the schedule. So long as I meet the deadline, they don't care when I work or how I work.

So long, Pop! I'm off to check my tiger trap!
