In certain ways it is incredibly damaging considering the stuff I did before certainly wasn't for kids.

Nothing quite brings out the zest for life in a person like the thought of their impending death.

But now I have a lot of little kids who watched Invader Zim whenever they could find it on television.

I am the rightful heir to the flaming global throne of evil. I WILL TAKE THIS WORLD AS MINE, so if you people could just cooperate it would be very nice.

I never killed anyone. I avoid going over that edge by writing about a guy who has taken a flying leap over it.

Doing something purely for one's own enjoyment is fine, but, I must admit, finding that others enjoy it as well has a certain power over the corners of my mouth.

I think there is something a little too self conscious about enjoying being an outsider.

Why does this person who is sitting behind a desk and never watches cartoons is arguing about what cartoons should be like. Its so creepy realizing that this person is a lunatic.

I take little bits and pieces of ideas that I may or may not believe in but I give them to this character and he runs with them. I have fun with however he handles the situation.

The shrewd may gain temporarily, but the wise gain permanently.

If Moses had been a committee the Israelites would still be in Egypt.

Of course in science there are things that are open to doubt and things need to be discussed. But among the things that science does know, evolution is about as certain as anything we know.

Life only demands from you the strength that you possess. Only one feat is possible not to run away.

What spectacle can be more edifying or more seasonable, than that of Liberty and Learning, each leaning on the other for their mutual and surest support?

I have to say, I haven't really worked with that many people in my career that I haven't liked, which I think is really rare.

I've been gratified to see over the twenty or so years of my writing life the West become less of a colony of the East; maybe new technologies and too much travel undermine the idea of provinciality.
