Cartoonists are untrained artists, while illustrators are more trained.

My style is very strong poses and expressions.

If you're a kid wanting to be a cartoonist today, and you're looking at Family Guy, you don't have to aim very high.

The only character I ever remember actually creating in a flash of inspiration was George Liquor. God planted that in my head in an instant.

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

I don't really know what the average person thinks about animation. I think the average person thinks that it's made by cartoonists - and it used to be. When people think of The Simpsons, they think of Matt Groening. They don't think of whoever the 200 writers are.

Drawing a funny animal, you don't need a lot of detail to make it work. But to draw a sexy girl, there's certain things you can't leave out.
