I was a big Fred Flintstone fan.

I'm big on the importance of science, particularly right now at this point in time when there's sort of a systematic rejection of science by a lot of people in America.

The trend today is vampires, zombies, angels, all the stuff that puts me right to sleep. It's too bad because it's so much less interesting than the diversity of stories you can tell with science.

I had - I was pretty hell bent on getting into the cartoon business specifically as an artist from the get-go.

When astrology was conceived, all of the celestial bodies were in different places. So if you're a Sagittarius now, I guess you would have been a Capricorn 2,000 years ago.

What makes me happy is just keeping my brain challenged and stimulated and on its toes.

Nobody sets out to offend or shock for the sake of shocking. You set out to get laughs.
