Bill Watterson (b. 1958) American cartoonist

CALVIN: I think life should be more like TV. I think all of life's problems ought to be solved in thirty minutes with simple homilies, don't you? I think weight and oral hygiene ought to be our biggest concerns. I think we should all have powerful, high-paying jobs, and everyone should drive fancy sports cars. All our desires should be instantly gratified. Women should always wear tight clothes, and men should carry powerful handguns. Life overall should be more glamorous, thrill-packed, and filled with applause, don't you think?

Calvin & Hobbes
