Some suggestions for you :

I was raised by a hardcore feminist.

My life has included a study of Shakespeare and to me it's very natural, but I know that it's not always accessible to other people.

Everything I do is going to contain the message that men who are going to be comfortable with powerful women are going to be more powerful men.

My people - before I was changed - they exchanged this as a sign of devotion. It's a Claddagh ring. The hands represent friendship; the crown represents loyalty... and the heart... Well, you know... Wear it with the heart pointing towards you. It means you belong to somebody. Like this.

People used to laugh that academics would study Disney movies. There's nothing more important for academics to study, because they shape the minds of our children possibly more than any single thing.

I love fantasy. I love horror. I love musicals. Whatever doesn't really happen in life is what I'm interested in. As a way of commenting on everything that does happen in life, because ultimately the only thing I'm really interested in is people.

Lockheed! You found me! You are the best X-Dragon ever.

I don't think that I can change the world, I just want to punch it up a little.

Soon, I will be 'King of all Hollywoodland.'

I also don't trust Caribou anymore. They're out there, on the tundra, waiting... Something's going down. I'm right about this.

I can do web, comic books, macrame, art.

The thing with the comics is that you have license to go down every alley your brain can think of.

Contradiction is the seed of conciousness. I knew, from the pain of contradiction, that I was. And what I was.

I always tend to think just left of center, to remove myself from the world by one step. It is very freeing, and it's a particular way of coming at stories and looking at them that I find the most beautiful stuff that I know comes from, ultimately.
