Before The Simpsons, I was 4 years old, so I don't know exactly what I was thinking before that.

I'm a lurker and a creep. Women don't like me because I sleep standing up, like a horse.

If the crowd is full of assholes, it's no fun. If the crowd is cool, it's great.

The president is the country's scapegoat more than the country's leader; the president has as much power as we think the president has. Whoever has the most money is the puppet master.

Do you think we're going to hit a tipping point and the world's going to end?

When I'm watching South Park I don't think it's written by neo-Nazis. They know exactly what they're doing.

The Simpsons was pretty experimental at the time, but it attracted a lot of sitcom writers that felt confined by the limitations of live-action sitcoms in the '80s.
