Someday, when I'm awfully low, and the world is cold, I will feel a glow just thinking of you, and the way you look tonight.

Interpretation
What this quote means
Creativity should be free and uninhibited; advice from the uncreative can stifle artistic expression.
The quote emphasizes the importance of creative freedom in the arts. When individuals who lack imagination or originality impose their views on those who are creative, it can hinder the true essence of art, leading it to become a mere imitation rather than an expression of unique ideas and emotions.

Long looking at paintings is equivalent to being dropped into a foreign city, where gradually, out of desire and despair, a few key words, then a little syntax make a clearing in the silence.

When I was working upon the ABC books, I wanted to show different ways that mainstream comics could viably have gone, that they didn't have to follow 'Watchmen' and the other 1980s books down this relentlessly dark route.
