I really want to continue doing art. I would love to go back to doing paintings one day. ”

I'm not a political comic. ”

I am obsessed with the painter Jonas Wood, but I don't think I'll ever be able to afford one of his paintings. He's an L.A.-based painter; his stuff is incredible. ”

I sometimes worry that maybe it's better to be really good at one thing than be okay at a couple things. ”

I find the most normal things about famous people to be the most fascinating. ”

I'm really inspired by the power of the individual. People like Gloria Steinem. ”

I'm from outside Philadelphia, a town called Wayne, which is, like, 25 minutes northwest. ”

I would love to be at a place where a girl character can also be a role model for young boys. ”

We love to start from a real place, whether it's us or our friends or working on a story from a writer's friend. ”

I love Maira Kalman. She's an amazing illustrator and writer. I've loved her since I was in college, but when I moved to New York and experienced the same city she was drawing and writing about, I developed a whole new appreciation. Her work made me observe everything so much deeper and more joyfully. ”
