I wish my work would be recognized by a larger crowd of people as more art than be stuck with the cartoonist label for the rest of my life.

I quit comics because I got completely sick of it. I was drawing comics all the time and didn't have the time or energy to do anything else. That got to me in the end.

I took my courage in both hands and went to the Laundromat to do my washing. I had to use three machines.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.

I'm lucky that I have whatever I had that makes me have a successful career, if you will.
