Look! A trickle of water running through some dirt! I'd say our afternoon just got booked solid!
Bill Watterson
Even when you look for it, you're never prepared for it.
Bill Watterson
I hope some historian will confirm that I was the first cartoonist to use the word 'booger' in a newspaper comic strip.
Bill Watterson
In the short term, it would make me happy to go play outside. In the long term, it would make me happier to do well at school and become successful. But in the VERY long term, I know which will make better memories.
Bill Watterson
Calvin: Sometimes when I'm talking, my words can't keep up with my thoughts. I wonder why we can think faster than we speak? Hobbes: Probably so we can think twice.
Bill Watterson
Getting an inch of snow is like winning 10 cents in the lottery.
Bill Watterson
I go to school, but I never learn what I want to know.
Bill Watterson

Bill Watterson
You mix a bunch of ingredients, and once in a great while, chemistry happens.
Bill Watterson
For no reason I can think of, I've wandered far astray. And that is how I got to where I find myself today.
Bill Watterson
Obviously the great thing about this job is the complete freedom of the schedule. So long as I meet the deadline, they don't care when I work or how I work.
Bill Watterson
Some people are pragmatists, taking things as they come and making the best of the choices available. Some people are idealists, standing for principle and refusing to compromise. And some people just act on any whim that enters their heads. I pragmatically turn my whims into principles.
Bill Watterson
As Calvin and Hobbes went on, the writing pushed the drawings into greater complexity. One of the jokes I really like is that the fantasies are drawn more realistically than reality, since that says a lot about what's going on in Calvin's head.
Bill Watterson
Happiness isn't good enough for me! I demand euphoria!
Bill Watterson
Isn't it sad how some people's grip on their lives is so precarious that they'll embrace any preposterous delusion rather than face an occasional bleak truth?
Bill Watterson
Calvin: They say the world is a stage. But obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Hobbes: Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce. Calvin: We need more special effects and dance numbers.
Bill Watterson
So, what's it like in the real world? Well, the food is better, but beyond that, I don't recommend it.
Bill Watterson
Years from now, when I'm successful and happy, ...and he's in prison... I hope I'm not too mature to gloat.
Bill Watterson
Calvin:It says here that 'religion is the opiate of the masses.'...what do you suppose that means? Television: ...it means that Karl Marx hadn't seen anything yet
Bill Watterson
I think comics overall would be better. I think there's a tremendous potential to be tapped.
