More quotes by Matt Groening
When I look at the smiles on all the children's faces...I just know they're about to jab me with something.
Matt Groening
I may be biting off more than I can chew, but with 'The Simpsons' and with 'Futurama,' what I'm trying to do in the guise of light entertainment, if this is possible - is nudge people, jostle them a little, wake them up to some of the ways in which we're being manipulated and exploited.
Matt Groening
'The Simpsons' is an especially collaborative show.
Matt Groening
I loved literary science fiction. In fact, as a kid, when I was reading science fiction, I thought 'I can't wait for the future when the special effects are good' to represent what was in these books by Arthur C. Clarke, Alfred Bester, Philip K. Dick, J.G. Ballard, Jack Vance.

I judge my life by how miserable it used to be. If I could pay my rent, I was deliriously happy. Now I'm deliriously happy all the time.
Matt Groening
Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.

I personally like the idea of newspapers. It's a good format. You can read it in whatever order you want. You can glance at it. There is something about a single screen and scrolling through pages that just doesn't have the same appeal.
Matt Groening
A woman is like beer. They look good, they smell good, and you'd step over your own mother just to get one!
Matt Groening
A lot of American shows don't last for as long as 12 episodes. They get cut after one. But certainly one of the great things about The Office in particular was that there was a beginning, a middle and an end.
Matt Groening
Well, most grown-ups forget what it was like to be a kid. I vowed that I would never forget.
Matt Groening
First you get the sugar, then you get the power, then you get the women.
Matt Groening
Don't have a cow, man.
Matt Groening
The entire world of grown-ups is corrupt and stupid.
Matt Groening
I always say that 'Futurama' is real, and 'The Simpsons' is fiction.
Matt Groening
I think human beings probably resonate with audiences more than bunnies, but who knows?
Matt Groening
I've conducted an experiment on my kids. Instead of denying them access to media, I've encouraged it. They read comic books, play Nintendo and watch way too much TV.
Matt Groening
I would prefer to listen to a French classical composer like Olivier Messiaen than to the pop hits of the day.
Matt Groening
Being a good embalmer is a thankless job.
Matt Groening
Here's to alcohol: the cause of, and answer to, all of life's problems.

'Adult Swim' on the Cartoon Network is unbelievable. And 'South Park' continues to do great stuff. And 'Family Guy' and the various other Seth MacFarlane projects are amazing.
