God put me on this earth to accomplish a certain number of things. Right now I am so far behind that I will never die.

The strips I admire go farther than a gag a day, and take us into a special world.

In a comic strip, you can suggest motion and time, but it's very crude compared to what an animator can do. I have a real awe for good animation.

Too often cartoonists just look at other cartoonists and, after a lot of inbreeding, everyone has the same funny look. The challenge of drawing is that there is no one right way to visually describe something. It's a good thing to confront your limitations and preconceptions every so often.

Why does man create? Is it man's purpose on earth to express himself, to bring form to thought, and to discover meaning in experience? Or is it just something to do when he's bored?

I've got plenty of common sense! I just choose to ignore it.

My whole problem is that my lips move when I think.
