The weatherman is not only blamed for his failure to foretell, he is blamed for the weather itself.

Fog and smog should not be confused and are easily separated by color. Fog is about the color of the insides of an old split wet summer cottage mattress; smog is the color and consistency of a wet potato chip soaked in a motorman’s glove.

Animation isn't the illusion of life; it is life

Every great artist must begin by learning to draw with the single line, and my advice to young animators is to learn how to live with that razor-sharp instrument or art. An artist who comes to me with eight or ten good drawings of the human figure in simple lines has a good chance of being hired. But I will tell the artist who comes with a bunch of drawings of Bugs Bunny to go back and learn how to draw the human body. An artist who knows that can learn how to draw ANYTHING, including Bugs Bunny.

I'm still astonished that somebody would offer me a job and pay me to do what I wanted to do.

If you start with character, you probably will end up with good drawings.

Bugs is who we want to be. Daffy is who we are.
