I think in the corridors of power these dangerous kinds of orders are issued in a much more vague way, passed down two or three levels of command before they're given to the assassin.

I came in on the decline. Phil Elliot was in first, he got his book out, he sold thirteen thousand, I think he got two issues out before I got mine in, this was March '87. He was out in December '86.

You had to make an appointment to see her. But it was just a crazy spectacle, people filing past.

He would still see it as his duty to shut up and get on with it, not cause any trouble. In our own time we've made a hero of the rebel, and it's more heroic to speak up.

I remember having an argument with Alan, I said the Queen's not just going to call the guy up and send him out to do it. And Alan says, well, how would a monarch give orders to her assassin.

There are a couple of things in there if we're constraining this discussion to horror here.

By March '87 we're down to seven thousand, by the end of the year we're down to twelve hundred. The whole bottom just fell out of the market. It was bad for me because I was in Australia at the time.

Dave Sim said in his latest thing of his, 'when you're on the right track, you'll know it, but until you get there, you have to believe you're on the right track'. Interesting little conundrum. It's not easy.

All that political stuff Delano was doing. Me, I've gone off the top, into total fantasy.

It's business, selling comics, you work out what sells and you don't want to muck about with it too much.

I wrote five issues of that and got the sack. Actually, they paid me for eight, but they changed their minds about the direction and threw three issues out the window.

And when you look at the Turtle's movie there is something there, definitely something there.

I'm just drawing it now. It's totally revolting. I'm sure you'll love it.

I don't want to write, I'd rather draw.

I'd be interested to read Gull's paper on it, and I wish Alan would put it in somewhere. It gives him a relevance to our times, which he doesn't otherwise have. Gull, I mean, not Alan.

I thought, well I can do that. I couldn't be bothered writing a book review, because I'd have to read the book, I haven't got time to read a whole book for a fifty dollar write-up.

We could hang around for ten years and nobody would care enough to identify us. Therein lies the horror.

They asked me to write it and zoomed me over there to do it. But they ended up sacking me.

It's not the last one. Five's out, six is coming out in November, that's a single chapter, and then seven is the big horrifying one. And I think a couple after that to wrap the thing up.

I'm thinking to myself, I just love doing the art, it takes me a morning to do.

They've got this house style which is writer driven. I heard of one person who sent his script in, and Karen Berger said there weren't enough words in it. Put some more in.

I think in the corridors of power these dangerous kinds of orders are issued in a much more vague way, passed down two or three levels of command before they're given to the assassin.

The essential elements of giving are power and love - activity and affection - and the consciousness of the race testifies that in the high and appropriate exercise of these is a blessedness greater than any other.

I want the municipality to be a helping hand to the man with a desire of sympathy, to help the fallen when it is not in their power to help themselves.

With an eye made quiet by the power of harmony, and the deep power of joy, we see into the life of things.

The oil companies regard nuclear power as their rival, who will reduce their profits, so they put out a lot of disinformation about nuclear power.

The franchise itself gives no real power, unless accompanied by the right on the part of all the possessors of it to elect something like an equal number of representatives.

Saddam Hussein has been tenacious in his pursuit of weapons of mass destruction and, unless he is removed from power, he will eventually harm our nation and our allies. Every moment we delay allows him to grow stronger.

Power without abuse loses its charm.

One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.

The power of fortune is confessed only by the miserable, for the happy impute all their success to prudence or merit.

To enable men to exercise that power is the object of protection.

One does not need buildings, money, power, or status to practice the Art of Peace. Heaven is right where you are standing, and that is the place to train.

Beauty, like truth, is relative to the time when one lives and to the individual who can grasp it. The expression of beauty is in direct ratio to the power of conception the artist has acquired.

During that space walk there will be some repositioning of the power so that the arm can be fully controlled by the robotic station that is in the Lab.

It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so.

Given the daunting challenges that we face, it's important that president elect Obama is prepared to really take power and begin to rule day one.

Every one, more or less, loves Power, yet those who most wish for it are seldom the fittest to be trusted with it.

To free us from the expectations of others, to give us back to ourselves - there lies the great, singular power of self-respect.

I have been, and will go on, fighting that damnable, dirty, rotten business with all the power at my command.

We look forward to the time when the power to love will replace the love of power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.

I felt the power of God as I'd never felt it before.

Power, as in the power structure, is why we are still using gas in cars.

The worst pain a man can suffer: to have insight into much and power over nothing.

The party in power, like Jonah's gourd, grew up quickly, and will quickly fall.

The labor movement means just this: it is the last noble protest of the American people against the power of incorporated wealth.

It's about the power of design and the power of the human spirit. It's above paying anybody to do something stupid for money like reality television does - like ambushing people.

All wars come to an end, at least temporarily. But the authority acquired by the state hangs on; political power never abdicates.

Many have said of Alchemy, that it is for the making of gold and silver. For me such is not the aim, but to consider only what virtue and power may lie in medicines.
