I was an artist, but not a self-proclaimed great artist, just a common man who was working in a form of art which is universal.

I feel that any man that tries, any man that comes out with something we like, is a good man. A man doesn't have to be Leonardo Da Vinci to be sincere.

My own son feels I'm uncool but my grandson loves me. Being cool or uncool is a generational thing. But as a personal thing, I really love everybody in sight.

I achieved perfection, my type of perfection - visual storytelling. Storytelling was my style.

My parents were immigrants. And the place for all immigrants was the factories. They were the source of cheap labor.

I never sued anybody, I never fought anybody or was in conflict or contention with any other party in a legal way. I feel that it hurts people, it hurts their families.

I hated to fight all the time just to enjoy my day. Fighting wasn't the kind of thing that I enjoyed, but I grew to enjoy it because I did it so long.
