“Josie was named after my wife... the Pussycats were an afterthought.”

“I created the characters. They are my intellectual property. What the courts will say, I don’t know.”

“I get a lot of letters from people. They say, 'I love your work, but why don't you give Betty a break?'”

“I was trying to get a little sex into the book.”

“Everything I ever drew, I drew with my wife in mind.”

“We always tried to keep it clean and wholesome.”
