Gravity Falls has transformed the children of America into an army of Dippers. I couldn't be more proud!

As long as I could hold a pencil, I was drawing and telling stories and making jokes. I've just been lucky that no one ever stopped me, and now I can do that for a living.

I'm a very relentless individual and have a lot more insanity coming.

In terms of creative engagement, I just love being able to produce, produce, produce. You don't always get it perfect, but it has much more of an improvisational element, and you learn.

Gravity Falls is a show about mysteries and magic but first and foremost it's a show about characters.

I remember as a kid being scared of the things that go bump in the night, but I was way more scared of adults.

A sibling is a friend for life, but they are a friend for life that you are forced to have. And like anything that you are forced to do, occasionally people will drive you crazy.

My goal with Gravity Falls is to make people as paranoid and insane as I was as a child, and I'm delighted to see it's working!

Once you train an audience to look for significance, they start to find it everywhere.

You can look at a finale as chance to make an impact or a statement, to shock people or shoot a big cannon and make a loud noise.

When I was a kid, I was obsessed with UFOs in particular, and the paranormal. I grew up in the '90s, which is when The X-Files was at its zenith.

Someone has done something for us. Something that we can never forget. Something that we can't do again even for our own selves.

We need each other yet, we bleed each other of the very life we are all drowning in with one another...

Self-confidence comes with self-awareness.

Don't be curious of matters that don't concern you never speak of them and don't ask about them.

First there was the theatre of people and animals, then of people and the devil. Now we need the theatre of people and people.

The American people, I am convinced, really detest free speech. At the slightest alarm they are ready and eager to put it down.

I never see the dawn that I don't say to myself perhaps.

I think that Mary Poppins needs a subtle reader, in many respects, to grasp all its implications, and I understand that these cannot be translated in terms of the film.

I want to make sure that all kids get a good education and enjoy what they learn

Over the last few hours I've allowed myself to feel defeated, and just like she said if you allow yourself to feel the way you really feel, maybe you won't be afraid of that feeling anymore.
