More From Roy Lichtenstein

We like to think of industrialization as being despicable. i don't really know what to make of it. there’s something terribly brittle about it. i suppose i would still prefer to sit under a tree with a picnic basket rather than under a gas pump, but signs and comic strips are interesting as subject matter. there are certain things that are usable, forceful, and vital about commercial art. we're using those things – but we're not really advocating stupidity, international teenagerism, and terrorism.

I think in daily newspapers, the way comic strips are treated, it's as if newspaper publishers are going out of their way to kill the medium. they're printing the comics so small that most strips are just talking heads, and if you look back at the glory days of comic strips, you can see that they were showcases for some of the best pop art ever to come out.

Leaves are usually looked upon as the children of the tree. yes, they are children of the tree, born from the tree, but they are also mothers of the tree. the leaves combine raw sap, water, and minerals, with sunshine and gas, and convert it into a variegated sap that can nourish the tree. in this way, the leaves become the mother of the tree. we are all children of society, but we are also mothers. we have to nourish society. if we are uprooted from society, we can not trasform it into a more liveable place for us and our children.

The signs that presage growth, so similar, it seems to me, to those in early adolescence: discontent, restlessness, doubt, despair, longing, are interpreted falsely as signs of decay. in youth one does not as often misinterpret the signs; one accepts them, quite rightly, as growing pains. one takes them seriously, listens to them, follows where they lead. ... but in the middle age, because of the false assumption that it is a period of decline, one interprets these life-signs, paradoxically, as signs of approaching death.

Today, natural gas now outstrips coal as the leading provider of electricity in america. if this is as big as people believe it is, natural gas will soon be powering trucks and marine ships. maybe even standard commercial cars that people use at home through compressed natural gas, other gas to liquids. the potential is there for more energy independence by america and a reliance on cleaner fuel - natural gas emits half as much as coal, in terms of carbon emissions. that's a real bounty.
