If I'm writing about a modern-day suburb, there's going to be details of the home and furniture, and if I'm writing about a historical period, those details, those pieces of the world are going to be there as well, but they'll be simplified, because I'm cartooning it.

Gene Luen Yang

I do think that many Americans have a limited view of what constitutes Japanese cartooning based on what gets translated, so it's great to see an increase in diversity.

Adrian Tomine

The type of cartooning that I think is generally referred to as 'alternative' or 'underground' is usually - the distinction is usually in terms of whether it's made by one person, the entire thing is done by one hand or more of a production line process, which is how the comics that we grew up reading were made.

Adrian Tomine

Cartooning is about deconstruction: you gotta tear something down to make a joke.

Berkeley Breathed

Cartooning is an honorable thing.

Bill Sienkiewicz

So cartooning, for me, is an honorable thing. It's pushing the envelope. It's the truth of something through exaggeration.

Bill Sienkiewicz

In many ways, cartooning is my therapy. I've always said they're like my diaries. It's thoughts and feelings and things I've seen on any particular day.

Bruce Eric Kaplan

Cartooning is a wonderful career, and I'd like more women to get to have it. I can't think of any reason why we won't see more syndicated female cartoonists in the future.

Cathy Guisewite

But to me what seems to be missing in a lot of portfolios is Cartooning.

Craig McCracken

I'm really interested in making a mark on a paper and letting that be cursive shorthand for an idea - that's the origin of cartooning.

Craig Thompson

I'm skeptical of the 'go local' approach to cartooning to preserve your job.

David Horsey

It is more raw and unfettered and I'm more likely going into something you could call extreme cartooning. There's a lot of that in the course of 'Holy Terror.' There are interludes where there are pictures - cartoon pictures - of modern figures and they are all wordless. It's up to readers to put the words in.

Frank Miller

My future plans are hazy, and I've yet to experience how much cartooning is in my blood and therefore how much I'll miss it. But I have some other interests, especially in music, and I will probably take the opportunity to delve into those things more deeply.

Gary Larson

Cartooning was a good fit for me. And yet now, years later, I almost never think about it.

Gary Larson

I actually find a lot of parallels in jazz and cartooning.

Gene Luen Yang

I was writing and cartooning and writing short stories from grade school on.

Hugh Hefner

I did freelance cartooning off and on from college graduation in 1991 through ABC News hiring me in 2003. I did a weekly comic strip for 'Roll Call' for about nine years. I sold cartoons and caricatures to 'The Los Angeles Times' and 'The Washington Post.' I drew as much as I could. It's really tough to make a living doing it.

Jake Tapper

In middle school, I started to draw, and my pencil sketches were huge. They were these 4ft by 3ft drawings, and I got a lot of attention for that, so that was very validating. But I didn't start cartooning until I was in college.

Jeff Kinney

Certainly in cartooning I'm given huge free rein at the moment.

Jonathan Shapiro

There was a teacher who recognized that I was interested in cartooning and he was great.
