If I can make one generalised statement, and generalised statements are never entirely true, nobody wants to be talked down to, kids included.

Even in this world where you’re getting everything you need and having this nice life, there’s still loneliness and longing and disconnection.

Felt is not the easiest thing to animate. It's very flimsy.

Be willing to get fired for a good idea.

I think, as you're growing up, your emotions are just as deep as they are when you're an adult. You're ability to feel lonely, longing, confused or angry are just as deep. We don't feel things more as we get older.

I like naps. I don't drink coffee.
