Life is for the living. I was a little scared before surgery 'cause of the release you sign that says there's always a very small percent chance that you'll die during the operation.

I've always said that you can't be the new Mel Blanc by doing Mel Blanc's voice.

There was a period where I was a little scared that I'd blown my chance.

You know as well as I do that counterinsurgency is a very nuanced type of military operation.

If someone gave me the chance to create something, I put myself into it. I just want to try to do something that will last forever and that won't leave people saying, 'Gee, it could have been better, it could've been this, it could've been that.'

People always say that you can't please everybody. I think that's a cop-out. Why not attempt it? 'Cause think of all the people you will please if you try.
