When I was in my twenties, I thought I was a better comic artist than the majority of the artists who were professionally published.

When I was in my forties, I thought I was maybe in the top third of all comic artists, and considered writing a how-to book on cartooning.

Now, almost seventy, I think I (as a cartoonist) am maybe in the top third of all PEOPLE, including the vast majority who don't normally draw comics at all.

It's weird how, the older I get, the more practiced I become, and yet the less I impress myself.
