Artists can color the sky red because they know it’s blue. Those of us who aren’t artists must color things the way they really are or people might think we’re stupid.

I don’t know how comic artists feed their families, if they do. But it’s a fascinating form and so I think that after a long period of nothing happening and work, nothing very impressive, we are into another golden age of comics. Unfortunately, it’s not a golden age for the artists themselves economically. I don’t know how they get along.

I think a play can do almost anything, because it’s also a static form, much more so than in a movie. In a movie you can move the scenery, you can do anything any way. A cartoon, happens in a limited amount of space and a limited amount of time, and you can only get so many words before the reader’s gonna get impatient. All of these forms that I enjoy are in a sense a slight of hand, where you have to suggest much more than you really show. You have to, in a sense, seduce the reader and trick the reader or the audience into going with you.

I’m not sure about that role any longer. The role used to be to mix things up and I think to a great extent it still is, but the quality of the work of the political cartoon has been succeeded by the wisecrack, the gag cartoon, so that the cartoonist becomes more of the equivalent of the Jay Leno monologues, or David Letterman monologues.

Kids are in ongoing need of support, and they get various versions of it from grownups which aren’t legitimate – a grownup’s version of what we think you should have. We tell you what creativity is, and we even tell you what you’re thinking.

The city keeps reinventing itself. And each generation thinks, as they enter it, that they’ve missed the best of it, and then they become the authors of the next “best.” And so it goes on and on and on. And New York keeps redefining itself and reinventing itself, and then you look at it and it’s pretty much the way it was back in the 1920’s., or in the 1930’s. Something stylistically different in some ways, but it’s still got the same vitality.
