"Just keep busy. I think the most important thing is to be busy, because if you have work occupying you, you don't have time to worry about the other serious problems in life." (Toronto Sun, 2015).
"I don't really see a need to retire as long as I am having fun." (The Guardian, 2006).
"I used to be embarrassed because I was just a comic-book writer while other people were building bridges or going on to medical careers. And then I began to realize: Entertainment is one of the most important things in people's lives. Without it they might go off the deep end. I feel that if you're able to entertain people, you're doing a good thing. When you're seeing how happy the fans are---as they [see up close] the people who tell the stories, who illustrated them, the TV personalities---I realize: It's a great thing to entertain people." (The Washington Post, 2010).
"Some people will say, 'Why read a comic book? It stifles the imagination. If you read a novel you imagine what people are like. If you read a comic, it's showing you.' The only answer I can give is, 'You can read a Shakespeare play, but does that mean you wouldn't want to see it on the stage?" (Denver Post Online).
"Another definition of a hero is someone who is concerned about other people's well-being and will go out of his or her way to help them, even if there is no chance of a reward. That person who helps others simply because it should or must be done, and because it is the right thing to do, is indeed without a doubt a real superhero." (Newsweek, 2017).
"You know, my motto is 'Excelsior.' That's an old word that means 'upward and onward to greater glory'. It's on the seal of the state of New York. Keep moving forward, and if it's time to go, it's time. Nothing lasts forever." (Playboy, 2014)
