In timing a film, we used to assume that sneaks move slowly. This was great for animators-thirty-six to forty-eight drawings for a single step-but it was sheer hell for the pace of the picture. So the rapid tiptoe was invented.
Every great artist must begin by learning to draw with the single line, and my advice to young animators is to learn how to live with that razor-sharp instrument or art. An artist who comes to me with eight or ten good drawings of the human figure in simple lines has a good chance of being hired. But I will tell the artist who comes with a bunch of drawings of Bugs Bunny to go back and learn how to draw the human body. An artist who knows that can learn how to draw ANYTHING, including Bugs Bunny.
The top line looks very good, ... were better than expected just because of the size of the company.
The only thing an adult can give a child is time.
The Coyote is limited, as Bugs is limited, by his anatomy.
It's not impossible that you could have a student athlete going virtually every day, week after week, and that's not a good situation. We try to prevent that.
It's a bargain. I'd gladly pay him another $808.6 million to have him create another $65 billion in market cap.
It was both a student athlete-oriented and program-oriented decision. We're very satisfied, and we think Bruce fits all of these criteria many times over. Plus, he's just a good, solid individual.
We're in a slower-growth environment and as Larry said, if you can get 10 percent growth from organic growth and 10 percent from acquisition, it adds cash and adds earnings. That's as long as they can make the integration work.
Censorship, I believe, is the most dangerous enemy to all human communication, and piety of intention is probably the most dangerous, the most virulent and the most self-satisfying.
If you were to draw Bugs, the easiest way is to learn how to draw a carrot and then hook a rabbit onto it
Anyone can say 'no'. It is the first word a child learns and often the first word he speaks. It is a cheap word because it requires no explanation, and many men and women have acquired a reputation for intelligence who know only this word and have used it in place of thought on every occasion.
The older I get, the more individuality I find in animals and the less I find in humans.
Often Anxiety is the hand maiden of creativity.
