I still do some inking here and there and I've actually got a book that I'm going to ink entirely.

I guess we're all just wired different. I just got to the point where I got tired of people telling me what I can and can't do in my life.

I don't belong. Not here. Not now. I have to get back there. The bet was rigged, he made me believe. Now there's darkness in my soul. I want to die . . . again. But I choose to come back, why?

I'm tired of trying to get other people to see into my brain. I'm done.

If I ever do anything, it actually might be some fantasy elf thing or even some cute, funny thing. Just to do something a little bit out of the ordinary. I've done my superhero gig.

But again, I put in my time with Marvel and DC so there was that period of my life of trying to learn how to draw and tell stories in a proper fashion.

Image has to be its own fortress, in spite of the owners. People can't separate that or they don't comprehend that you can turn that on and off for each one of the different entities.

Anthology shows as a whole scare people. The networks can't quite get their heads around it.

I'm a guy who likes to watch something cool, creepy and suspenseful and there is no show to watch as an adult that would scare me at for even four seconds.

I want to go to my grave a free man. Surviving against giants-that's victory.

Here is a fear for me, I never wanted to be one of those guys that was defined by a body of work 20 years old.

I could forget that part, but it had to have been true.

I am animated by my joyful life. I let my inner child feel loved and experience joy every day.

When you get to find love, make sure it's because you get to find yourself

This has been my greatest challenge: because the current reality now seems so unreal, it's hard to make nonfiction seem believable. But you, my friend [Michael Moore], are able to do that.

Life cannot be lived, and understood, simultaneously.

There is no use talking about the problem unless you talk about the solution

Be glad. Be good. Be brave.

Being alone in nature is another way to feel the joy of beauty - and oneness with a greater whole.

All myths that are something more than fancies gain rather than lose in value with time, by reason of the accretions of human experience.

Philosophy, for me, is a way of relearning to look at the world, a world that is familiar to us, that we know, that is shared by all human beings and also by nonhuman beings.
