More quotes by Matt Groening
I know for a fact, obviously, because my kids grew up watching the show, that there are some things they are introduced to from 'The Simpsons', and then later in life they see the thing we're parodying. My kids had not seen 'Casablanca,' and we'd done parodies of 'Casablanca.'

Matt Groening
Aren't we forgeting the true meaning of Christmas? You know, the birth of Santa.
Matt Groening
My life changed when I was able to not only get seated in nice restaurants, I was given free appetizers. That was like, Oh, my God, I've arrived.
Matt Groening
I always say that 'Futurama' is real, and 'The Simpsons' is fiction.
Matt Groening
Nihilism in American comedy came along way before 'The Simpsons.' There was a fairly nihilistic point of view to 'Saturday Night Live,' for instance, back in the beginning, and a lot of really dark comedy had a really anti-sentimental take on life.
Matt Groening
You can't keep blaming yourself. Just blame yourself once, and move on. Homer Simpson
Matt Groening
When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.
Matt Groening
