It's cool if people want to make movies of stuff, but I'm really interested in the comics.

All we ever wanna do is inspire somebody to be who they wanna be and to give them a little bit of hope.

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most [borrowed from Mark Twain]

Real revenge is making something of yourself.

Now I have notebooks that are filled up, mostly with Doom Patrol, but also angry letters to myself mixed in with the comic.

Life is very, very short, and you can choose to live it how you want. You can choose to dumb yourself down and not express yourself just so you can fit in, just so people won't dislike you.

I was talking to Cecil [Castellucci], who writes Shade, and I was saying to her, and she was saying the same thing, that I'm not even the same person who wrote the first issue of Doom Patrol, and that was six months ago. I'm a totally different person now, already. It's weird to look back at stuff, but it's an honor that there's a legacy of people who still keep it in their heads. It's really cool!
