Comics seem to be cooking these days. It's like being a rock star. - Art Spiegelman

I became a philosophy major literally to understand why I should put up with this shit.

What Franz Kafka was to the first half of the 20th century, Philip K. Dick is to the second half.

I never intended it to be for young adults, children, whatever. But over the years I’ve had to change my opinion. When I first got an award from the New York Public Library for best young adult book, I was annoyed, because I thought, “Thirteen years to make a book for adults, and here it is getting a young adult award.” And I’ve had to modify my position over the years because I’ve now met many, many children who have studied it in school, who found it on their own, who were given it by their parents, and it actually is received with a degree of real wisdom in their reading, based on the people I’ve talked to, the young people. So, I give up. Comics are for whoever can understand them.
