 The subject of creativity is such a huge subject. There are many things that make it happen. Sometimes it's desperation to produce something that somebody else will want to buy, print, look at, hang on their wall so that you can make a living out of it. At other times there are people who are driven to be creative because that's their mission in life. They just can't think of living a life any other way and they're willing to lock themselves up in an attic and starve and just keep painting or sculpting. I personally, I like to entertain people. I became a cartoonist because cartoons are popular and you can get across a multitude of ideas. You see something funny, something that strikes you funny in the paper, something political, something ridiculous, and you get a cartoon idea out of it. There isn't anywhere that I go, whether I get into a subway or on a bus or rent a car or whatever, that I don't have a criticism of how they run these things. I was able to exploit this creative attitude in Mad Magazine by doing a lot of mad inventions. Everyone is inspired by a different muse and you follow your muse. I hope I can create a couple more things before I kick the bucket, which is a very creative thing to do, by the way, instead of dying.
