Bill Watterson
Mothers are the necessity of invention.
Bill Watterson
Blustery cold days should be spend propped up in bed with a mug of hot chocolate and a pile of comic books.
Bill Watterson
Even if lives did hang in the balance, it would depend on whose they were.
Bill Watterson
You are demoted from First Tiger to bulk rate.
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
Everybody I know fails the acid test of friendship.
Bill Watterson
