More quotes by Matt Groening
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.

I think human beings probably resonate with audiences more than bunnies, but who knows?

Anxiety and hostility seem to be a great part of good and bad humor. Examining humor too closely does seem to destroy it.

Here's to alcohol: the cause of, and answer to, all of life's problems.
Matt Groening
I thought I was going to make crazy cartoons for the rest of my life. I didn't think I'd ever get paid for it, didn't think I drew well enough, but I knew it made me happy.

I have to say that The Simpsons comes from a huge number of great writers headed by Al Jean, the show-runner, and the work that they do is really fantastic. It's a blast just to sit around with them in the writers' room and listen to all the filthy jokes that will never get on the air.

The entire world of grown-ups is corrupt and stupid.

Ned, have you considered any of the other major religions? They're all pretty much the same.

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.

Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.

One of the things I would like to do is make up stories that I would have enjoyed when I was a kid. So, if I'm thinking about an audience, it's usually a younger version of myself.

Of course I’ve gone mad with power! Have you ever tried going mad without power? It’s boring and no one listens to you! — Russ Cargill

A woman is like beer. They look good, they smell good, and you'd step over your own mother just to get one!

I want it to go on, but I want us to go out on top.

I was always frightened by taverns. They just seemed like very unpleasant places to go.

Your cable television is experiencing difficulties. Please do not panic. Resist the temptation to read or talk to loved ones. Do not attempt sexual relations, as years of TV radiation have left your genitals withered and useless.
Matt Groening
The French are funny, sex is funny, and comedies are funny, yet no French sex comedies are funny.

Aren't we forgeting the true meaning of Christmas? You know, the birth of Santa.
Matt Groening
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.
