Me fail English? That's unpossible.
Matt Groening
I had been drawing my weekly comic strip, 'Life in Hell,' for about five years when I got a call from Jim Brooks, who was developing 'The Tracey Ullman Show' for the brand-new Fox network. He wanted me to come in and pitch an idea for doing little cartoons on that show.

Everybody is clever, just in their own ways

If people only knew how much I secretly hated them, they'd love me for holding it in.

How can I be expected to love someone who tries such crude manipulations as bringing me breakfast in bed?

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
Being a good embalmer is a thankless job.
Matt Groening
For some reason, a lot of Hollywood big shots are curious to see how they'd be drawn with bulging eyes and no chin.
Matt Groening
I think in daily newspapers, the way comic strips are treated, it's as if newspaper publishers are going out of their way to kill the medium.
Matt Groening
When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.
Matt Groening
If at first you don't succeed - give it up. It isn't worth the pain.
Matt Groening
Don't have a cow, man.
Matt Groening
I don't have to be careful, I've got a gun.
