Robert [Crumb] is the best dishwasher I've ever met and he's fun to talk to at the breakfast table. He always laughs at my jokes and is my best fan. And that's what it feels like to live with a genius, to me.
I drew the most sordid, unacceptable parts of myself. I'm not as ugly as I draw myself. But when I was younger, that's how I felt, so that's what I drew.
