If you think a man draws the type of hands that you want to draw, steal ‘em. Take those hands.

It's not in the draftsmanship, it's in the man. Like I say, a tool is dead. A brush is a dead object. It's in the man. If you want to do it, you do it.

I've never done anything half-heartedly. It's the reason my comics did well. It's the reason my comics were drawn well. I can't do anything bad.

The people who worked in comics were terrific guys. I had a good association with them, and I enjoyed comics for that very reason.

I felt the comics grew because they became the common man's literature, the common man's art, the common man's publishing.

Perfectionists are their own devils.

In the Army when we had judo classes, out of the class of 27 just me and another guy graduated. I grew to enjoy it because I knew I could do it well. I tried to do everything well.
