Mort Meskin Was A Consummate Professional, Dedicated

I'm A Guy Who Had To Perform Some Way. I Had To Perform In Some Way. If Not As An Actor, I'd Perform As An Artist. It Would Have Been Something That Would Be Outstanding In Its Own Way.

I've Never Done Anything Half-heartedly. It's The Reason My Comics Did Well. It's The Reason My Comics Were Drawn Well. I Can't Do Anything Bad.

I Taught Myself How To Draw, And I Soon Found Out It Was What I Really Wanted To Do. I Didn't Think I Was Going To Create Any Great Masterpieces Like Rembrandt Or Gauguin. I Thought Comics Was A Common Form Of Art, And Strictly American In My Estimation, Because America Was The Home Of The Common Man - And Show Me The Common Man That Can't Do A Comic. So Comics Is An American Form Of Art That Anyone Can Do With A Pencil And Paper.

I Feel That Man Can Transcend Himself To A Point Where He Can Accomplish Greater Things Than He Thinks. I See People Depressed And I See People Who Devalue Themselves And I Feel That's A Terrible, Terrible Waste. But I Love The People Who Try. But Try Fairly, Try Honestly.

I Took A Great Joy With Inventing New Kinds Of Mechanisms. I Invented New Kinds Of Machines. I've Been A Student Of Science Fiction For A Long, Long Time, And I'm Very Well-versed In Science Fact And Science Fiction.
