I always thought it would be funny to have the Parents Television Council write an episode of 'Family Guy' and give them full creative control. Then see how good the episode is. That's something we've actually discussed in the writers' room. We haven't proposed it yet, but if somebody from the PTC reads this, it might be worth discussing.

The average person has eight different jobs over the course of their lifetime. You get a little antsy doing the same thing.

Even if you know a character really well, there's no formula for what jokes will work and what won't.

I cannot tell good art from bad art. I have no eye for it.

I had - I was pretty hell bent on getting into the cartoon business specifically as an artist from the get-go.

My dad always played Anne Murray in the car on the way to the dump when I was a kid.

Denzel Washington has a great sense of humor. He did all those 'Nutty Professor' movies.

Some of those more out-there jokes were written in the wee hours of the morning. Somehow, they remained funny the next day.

I do not believe in God. I'm an atheist. I consider myself a critical thinker, and it fascinates me that in the 21st century most people still believe in, as George Carlin puts it, 'the invisible man living in the sky'

The way Disney characters move, they're very kind of slow and fluid and flowing one pose kind of eases into the next. If you look at a show like 'The Simpsons' and subsequently a show like 'Family Guy' - the characters will jerk from pose to pose a lot, a bit more snappy. Which sort of goes along with the writing tone of the show.

When 'Family Guy' started, we wanted to make it more like a sitcom. And there was very little music.

Believe it or not, I have about the same success rate as anyone else. Sometimes you hit, sometimes you miss.

I'm not a fatalist. I'm not a religious person. I'm sure there are close calls that we're not even aware of hundreds of times a year. You cross the street, and if you'd crossed the street two minutes later, you'd have been hit by a car, but you'd never know it. I'm sure that kind of stuff happens all the time.

I'm one of the few people in Hollywood who actually had a good childhood.

I spent my entire childhood in the same town, in Kent. I went to grade school there. There was a boarding school that my mother taught at, called - appropriately enough - Kent School, that I went to. Yeah, pretty much my entire childhood was spent in that town.

There are people on staff who have made that point, that the upside to a second Bush term is that it makes 'American Dad' work better. To me, the price is too high. I would gladly give up the comedy to have a President Kerry. But you work with what you have.

The Simpsons are ugly-looking, and they should be. That's what works. That's one of the things that's funny.
