I decided honestly that comic art is an art form in itself. It reflects the life and times more accurately and actually is more artistic than magazine illustration – since it is entirely creative. An illustrator works with camera and models; a comic artist begins with a white sheet of paper and dreams up his own business – he is playwright, director, editor and artist at once.

Time is the coin of life. Only you can determine how it will be spent.

Tungsten, X-rays, and Coolidge form a trinity that has left an indelible impression upon our life and times.

Animals are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time.

We patronize the animals for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they are more finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other Nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time.

The less like a mathematics equation (a sum game); the more like music (significant secret).
