I am very bad at computers. I don't really know how to write email.

I never wanted to make a graphic novel. As soon as you become a 'writer,' you have to be intelligent all the time... I like the fact that I have the right once in a while to say silly things.

I was a child who had a life, who had hopes, and I wished that a bomb would not fall on my head.

The most exciting time is when I think of an idea and how I imagine I can make it. It would be wonderful if there was a projector inside my eye that and it could just put the idea on the screen for people to see.

I'm a very individualistic person. That is why I don't belong to any political party or anything. I really believe in justice and freedom.

Comics are just another medium to express yourself. It's not cinema; it's not literature; it's just something else. It has a specific requirement, which is that images are used to tell the story. There are lots of crappy movies, with guns and action and Arnold Schwarzenegger or whatever.

I became the voice of a generation in a very surprising way, because many Iranians recognize themselves in it. But that is not what I wanted.
