“Sometimes I get the feeling that I’m stranded in the wrong time where love is just a lyric in a children’s rhyme”

Mommy would never divorce Daddy. He’s just like one of the family.

I don’t just try to be funny.

Today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present.

A hug is like a boomerang – you get it back right away.

I didn’t always spell my name Bil. My parents named me Bill, but when I started drawing cartoons on the wall, they knocked the ‘L’ out of me.

OF COURSE I’d like to be the ideal mother. But I’m too busy raising children.

Yesterday’s the past, tomorrow’s the future, but today is a gift. That’s why it’s called the present.

I think it’s a novelty for cartoon characters to cross over into another strip or panel occasionally.

On radio and television, magazines and the movies, you can’t tell what you’re going to get. When you look at the comic page, you can usually depend on something acceptable by the entire family.

I have one son. Of everything I’ve done in my life, nothing matches the feeling of having life growing inside you.

Cynthia’s lyrics always expressed the feelings people felt but they couldn’t express themselves.

Feelings are your guide. Trust your feelings and learn to express them, and do not blame anyone for how you feel. Be yourself, observe yourself. Look to understand any crisis you have been in or will be in.

When I use electronic beats and program things, there’s something quite brain about that – you’re feeling it in your body but it’s like a puzzle you wanna solve, and it gets very detailed. I really enjoy that side of music.

The benefits of positive emotions don’t stop after a few minutes of good feelings subside. In fact, the biggest benefit that positive emotions provide is an enhanced ability to build skills and develop resources for use later in life.

Stories are not about ideas, gimmicks, or places. Stories are about people. People are about feelings!

I love feeling the rhythm of other people’s lives. It’s like traveling.
