...his view of cinema
''Film is the greatest tranquilizer in the world for me. I fall asleep during opening credits. I go right out. Any film. Cartoons, I'm up for days. Movies, it's over within seconds.'' (2005)

...becoming part of Disney's marketing machine
''It's fascinating to witness the machine at work, watch it hum and scream and howl. To see these products, like cereal boxes and fruit chews and action figures and sheets and towels and pillows...I mean, we've entered the arena where Marcel Duchamp and Andy Warhol are Snoopy-dancing in the nude. It's so absurd and so surreal and so irreverent that I love it.'' (2006)
