"All cartoon characters and fables must be exaggeration, caricatures. It is the very nature of fantasy and fable."
"Until a character becomes a personality it cannot be believed. Without personality, the character may do funny or interesting things, but unless people are able to identify themselves with the character, its actions will seem unreal. And without personality, a story cannot ring true to the audience."
