The same trend can be seen in personal relationships, in the way people are expected to package themselves, their emotions and sexuality, in attractive and instantly appealing forms.”

“Disney and I were a bad mix. For a year I was probably more depressed than I have ever been in my life. I worked for a great animator, Glenn Kean. He was nice, he was good to me, he's a really strong animator and he helped me. But he also kind of tortured me because I got all the cute fox scenes to draw, and I couldn't draw all those four-legged Disney foxes. I just couldn't do it. I couldn't even fake the Disney style. Mine looked like road kills.”
― Tim Burton, Burton on Burton

― Taffy Brodesser-Akner, Fleishman Is in Trouble
“Un rato é unha cousa que se move,
unha cousa que vive nos sobrados
e ten un corazón pequerrechiño
e dous ollos de vidro sempre acesos.
Unha cousa que vai furando as tebras,
xurde correndo, pasa, f*cke, líscase.
Un rato é unha cousa que está viva
un intre só, despois non é nada,
sombra nas sombras mestas dos buratos.
A noite é un burato sen orelas
pra os homes, tristes ratos sin acougo.
Un home é unha cousa que cavila,
cismando sempre, sempre amargurado,
f*ckindo de outras cousas que rebulen,
revolvendo papeis,
decote rebulindo,
sempre con presas, atafegado sempre,
camiña, chouta, avanta nos buratos,
nos sobrados do mundo,
nas estradas da vida,
nas pedras,
no vento,
nas rúas,
nos seos das mulleres.
Un rato é unha cousa que se move.
Escóitame Walt Disney ¿Onde estabas
que os meus soños de pombas non te viron
cando o meu corazón inda era neno
e había carabeles nos meus ollos?”
― Celso Emilio Ferreiro, O Soño Sulagado
