Despite the rejection, and in violation of all the rules, I came back year after year.

After I had done a handful of cartoons I was satisfied with, I started submitting them to the magazines.

Among the great glories of the MGM lot were the vast outdoor sets that had been constructed over the years.

I was convinced there as only one actor to play Templeton the Rat, and that was Tony Randall.

I don't know that I spent any more time alone than any other kid, but being by myself never bothered me.

I have spent a lot of years on the outside looking in.

I learned long ago to accept the fact that not everything I create will see the light of day.
