Snoopy's not a real dog of course - he's an image of what people would like a dog to be. But he has his origins in Spike, my dog I had when I was a kid. White with black spots. He was the wildest and smartest dog I've ever encountered. Smart? Why he had a vocabulary of at least 50 words, I mean it. I'd tell him to go to the basement and bring up a potato and he'd do it.

[on his favorite strip]: That was the one where the kids are looking at the clouds and Linus says 'See that one cloud over there? It sort of looks like the profile of Thomas Eakins, the famous portrait painter. And that other group over there - that looks as though it could be a map of British Honduras. And then do you see that large group of clouds up there? I see the stoning of Stephen. Over to the side I can see the figure of the apostle Paul standing'. Then Lucy says, 'That's very good, Linus. It shows you have quite a good imagination. What do you see in the clouds , Charlie Brown?' And Charlie says, 'Well I was going to say I saw a ducky and a horsey but I've changed my mind. Show less «

I sometimes wonder when Lucy is staring back at me from the comic strip what she might be thinking. But Lucy's a lot of fun to draw. I like giving her those wild expressions of anger and terror and anxiety that she often expresses. She's fun to work with because she has this violence within her. Lucy's kind of a composite of all the fussbudgets I've known in the world...both men and women. Show less «

I want to keep the strip simple. I like it, for example, when Charlie Brown watches the first leaf of fall float down and then walks over and just says 'Did you have a good summer?' Show less «

Cartooning is a fairly sort of a proposition. You have to be fairly intelligent - if you were really intelligent, you'd have to be doing something else. You have to draw fairly well well - if you drew really well you'd be a painter. You have to write fairly well - if you wrote really well you'be writing books. It's great for a fairly person like me.

I think Snoopy is the easiest of the characters to draw and probably the most fun. Snoopy represents the dream of a lot of people who would like to be a club champion or to be a world-famous flying ace. But there's another quality about Snoopy that I think makes the whole thing work. This is a quality of innocence combined with a little bit of egotism. You put those qualities together, and I think you have trouble, especially with Snoopy. Show less «

As for Linus...one day I drew this funny little character with funny hair, and I thought he might be a good little brother for Lucy. So that's how Linus got started. Linus is a lot of fun to draw. He is very flexible, especially his hair, and it's fun to draw wild expressions on Linus...like when Lucy is yelling at him. I'm very proud of the overall character of Linus. I think he's the most well-rounded individual in the group. Show less «
