I don t think cartoons are only for kids, but I think kids will love anything as long as it's visually interesting.

If you're reading a comic strip, you can read it at any speed you want. But with film and music, the audience has to take it the way the composer gives it.

Joe Barbera's s always complaining that he can't get humor into cartoons anymore. Just do it. You've got your money. Why do they let the networks run their lives?

As soon as I found out how compartmentalized the industry was, I realized, Well, no wonder the cartoons are so bad.

From 20 years of experience hiring artists out of the schools, I know-they get worse every year. They're absolutely ridiculously retarded now.

Kids cannot follow stories. They don't know what the hell is going on in a cartoon. They like to see funny visual things happening.

Cartoonists are untrained artists, while illustrators are more trained.
