More quotes by Matt Groening
The really great thing about having two TV shows going on at the same time is that I can go to one and say that I have to go and visit the other and then I can just go home and they don't know.
Matt Groening
Everybody is clever, just in their own ways

I went through a phase where people would introduce me at parties as a cartoonist, and everybody felt sorry for me. 'Oh, Matt's a cartoonist.' Then people further feeling sorry for me would ask me to draw Garfield. Because I'm a cartoonist, draw Snoopy or Garfield or something.
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!

The amazing thing about Freak Out! was that there was nothing quite like it in rock 'n roll at the time. It was really simultaneously crude and ugly, and incredibly sophisticated. The Beatles were funny, but there was nothing with the kind of sneer that you could feel in the music of Frank Zappa.
Matt Groening
Did you hear something? No. Did I hear something? ...I don't know.
Matt Groening
But Marge, what if we chose the wrong religion? Each week we just make God madder and madder.
Matt Groening
Donuts. Is there anything they can't do?

With Futurama, I wanted to do unrequited love, and David Cohen agreed, and although our original plan was never to have Fry and Leela get together, we finally just said, You can only string the fans along so far.
Matt Groening
I believe that children are our future. Unless we stop them now.
Matt Groening
'The Simpsons' obviously is a huge success, and Fox has nothing to do with its success, with its creative success, and as a result they don't really like the show. They don't like 'The Simpsons' at Fox.
Matt Groening
If at first you don't succeed - give it up. It isn't worth the pain.
Matt Groening
Sometimes people get mad at The Simpsons' subversive story telling, but there's another message in there, which is a celebration of making wild, funny stories.
Matt Groening
Me fail English? That's unpossible.
Matt Groening
Anxiety and hostility seem to be a great part of good and bad humor. Examining humor too closely does seem to destroy it.
Matt Groening
Well, most grown-ups forget what it was like to be a kid. I vowed that I would never forget.

I promise I'll do anything for you, especialy if it's easy. Homer Simpson
