“Quiet you kids. If I hear one more word, Bart doesn't get to watch cartoons, and Lisa doesn't get to go to college.”
Dan Castellaneta
“My kids are grown and gone, but I remember just how violent even cartoons were. In fact, we even pulled the television out of the house for awhile. I saw the effect.”
Bill Whalen
“Heigh ho, heigh ho! / It's off to work we go.”
Walt Disney
“I've never canceled a subscription to a newspaper because of bad cartoons or editorials. If that were the case, I wouldn't have any newspapers or magazines to read.”
Richard M. Nixon
“I started, actually, to make my first animated cartoon in 1920. Of course, they were very crude things then and I used sort of little puppet things.”
“Suddenly, two bystanders stuck their heads inside the frame and ruined one of the funniest cartoons ever.”
Gary Larson
“The present era grabs everything that was ever written in order to transform it into films, TV programs; or cartoons. What is essential in a novel is precisely what can only be expressed in a novel, and so every adaptation contains nothing but the non-essential. If a person is still crazy enough to write novels nowadays and wants to protect them, he has to write them in such a way that they cannot be adapted, in other words, in such a way that they cannot be retold.”
Milan Kundera
