More quotes by Bill Watterson
But Calvin is no kind and loving god! He's one of the old gods! He demands sacrifice!
Bill Watterson
I guess I just don't have the killer instinct that I think makes a great political cartoonist.
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
The writing doesn't distract me while I'm drawing and vice versa. I can devote my full attention to each.
Bill Watterson
CALVIN: When I grow up I want to be an inventor. First I will invent a time machine. Then I'll come back to yesterday and take myself to tomorrow and skip this dumb assignment.
Bill Watterson
HOBBES: All this modern technology just makes people try to do everything at once.
Bill Watterson
People who get nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children.
Bill Watterson
People always make the mistake of thinking art is created for them. But really, art is a private language for sophisticates to congratulate themselves on their superiority to the rest of the world. As my artist’s statement explains, my work is utterly incomprehensible and is therefore full of deep significance.
Bill Watterson
I wish I had more friends, but people are such jerks. If you can just get most people to leave you alone, you're doing good. If you can find even one person you really like, you're lucky. And if that person can also stand you, you're really lucky.
Bill Watterson
CALVIN: Our hero regains consciousness at the feet of a sarcastic alien.
Bill Watterson
I try to make everyone's day a little more surreal.
Bill Watterson
Even when you look for it, you're never prepared for it.
Bill Watterson
Never argue with a six-year-old who shaves.
Bill Watterson
Talking with you is sort of the conversational equivalent of an out of body experience.
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
Oh look, yet another Christmas TV special! How touching to have the meaning of Christmas brought to us by cola, fast food, and beer... Who'd have ever guessed that product consumption, popular entertainment, and spirituality would mix so harmoniously?
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
Obviously the role of comics is changing very fast. On the one hand, comics are widely accepted and taken seriously. On the other hand, the mass media is disintegrating, and audiences are atomizing. I suspect comics will have less widespread cultural impact and make a lot less money.
Bill Watterson
There's more to this world than just people, you know.
Bill Watterson
Things are never quite as scary when you've got a best friend.
