“I like the term ‘misunderstood.’ But I am a bit of a bad boy.”

Never live life in fear of death.

There’s so much more to the book than the page you were stuck on.

When fans start screaming when they see me it makes my heart smile.

I was a bit of a handful when I was a kid because I was quite hyperactive. Even in the house my mum used to put me in my pram because I was so full-on.

I want a girl who doesn’t know that she’s beautiful, so i have an excuse to let her know all the time.

Before you judge people, judge yourself.

I am the most jealous boy in the world, when I’m with my girlfriend. I always kiss her so that the other guys know she’s mine

Live for who and what you love.

No matter how hard life is, don’t lose hope

I like girls that are chilled out, that dont really care, that are just cool

Life is funny. Things change, people change, but you will always be you, so stay true to yourself and never sacrifice who you are for anyone.

Life is a funny thing, the minute you think you’ve got everything figured out something comes along and turns it all upside down.

If people talk behind your back, it’s because you’re ahead of them.

Just close your eyes and enjoy the rollercoaster that is life.

Life isn’t a music player where you choose whats being played, it is a radio where you have to enjoy whats being played.

It doesn’t matter how much you flirt the whole day, at night you’ll always end up thinking about the one you truly love.

For a moment man is a boy, for a moment a lovesick youth, for a moment bereft of wealth, for a moment in the height of prosperity; then at life’s end with limbs worn out by old age and wrinkles adorning his face, like an actor he retires behind the curtain of death.

I was painfully shy when I was younger but at some point you’ve gotta grow up. I think the genius in the man-boy thing is you tap into a woman’s motherly instincts.

You’d look out and there’d be little babies watching the show, and boys and girls. They loved the cowboys, and they loved Annie. There were young people seeing the show for the first time. I stayed for two years because I enjoyed it so much.

Steve Dallas…a frat-boy lawyer who I knew in school. He’s never written me. I suspect he was shot by an annoyed girlfriend, which has saved me many legal fees.

I’ll confess right here that I secretly wish I’d have drawn a strip about a little boy with a fake tiger, going for adventures throughout the universe in spaceships of his imagination.

Give a boy a dog and you’ve furnished him a playmate.

What a child does not know and does not want to know of race and colour and class, he learns soon enough as he grows to see each man flipped inexorably into some predestined groove like a penny or a sovereign in a banker’s rack. Kibii, the Nandi boy, was my good friend.

Prior to being mugged I did not feel I had to carry a gun. However, I knew how to shoot a gun very proficiently. As a boy, I used to play cowboys and Indians all the time.
