The top 10 most inspiring quotes by William Hanna
- We almost decided on a dog and a fox before we hit on the idea of using a cat and mouse.
- We all can’t stay busy doing exactly what we want to do.
- I think anything created today can be said to be a ripoff. It’s hard to find anything original any more.
- In my opinion, animation will continue to thrive as long as there are children, parents, television, movies and the need to laugh.
- I think ‘The Simpsons’ is in the right time slot because it’s not a show for kids. It’s too vulgar. And ‘Ren and Stimpy’ is worse. We would never do anything like that.
- On the ‘Tom and Jerry’s,’ Joe and I would sit across a desk from each other and develop the story. Joe would do the storyboard and I’d do the timing and the direction of the animation.
- I enjoyed doing the ‘Tom and Jerry’ cartoons, and if we had never done anything else, I would have been perfectly satisfied.
- I was never a good artist.
- You can compare Fred and Barney Rubble with Gleason and Carney.
- We used to make a ‘Tom and Jerry’ short every six weeks and they were about six minutes long, so we were producing about a minute of animation a week.
