I see myself as an artist who happens to do cartoons.

So many cartoonists draw the same year after year. When they find a style, they stick with it. They don't mess with innovation, and they become boring.

If it were not for the fact that editors have become so timorous in these politically correct times, I would probably have a greater readership than I have.

We're all idealistic when young.

There were dragons to slay in the old days. Nixon was a good dragon.

One-newspaper towns are not good because all the surviving newspaper does is print money. They make 25 percent on their money every year, and if they go down to 22 percent, they start laying people off.

I can always see what I've done wrong. I'm always learning. I'm the perennial student.
