I love making things. I love building things. I love the idea that something's in the world that wasn't there before.

Books make great gifts because they have whole worlds inside of them. And it's much cheaper to buy somebody a book than it is to buy them the whole world!

A nice, easy place for freedom of speech to be eroded is comics, because comics are a natural target whenever an election comes up.

It’s an artist’s job to show people the world they live in. We hold up mirrors.

There's this thing, they have in french: L'espirit d'escalier. The spirit of the stairway. I don't think we have a word for it in English. It means, well, the clever things to say that you only think to yourself when you're on the way out.

The only ones who ever come here from your lands are the minstrels, and the lovers, and the mad. And you don't look like much of a minstrel, and you're— pardon me for saying so lad, but it's true— ordinary as cheese crumbs. So it's love if you ask me.

That's sexism, that is. Going around giving people girly presents just because they're a girl.
