I Didn't Like Army Life. I Didn't

Mort Meskin Was A Consummate Professional, Dedicated To His Work. A Great Talent.

I Don't Like To Work In An Office. I Like To Work In My House, To Be Among My Own Thoughts. The Idea Is For An Editor To Let His Artist Alone, Let Them Be Themselves, Let Them Exchange Their Own Ideas And You'll Come Up With Something Salable.

Some Of My Friends Became Gangsters. You Became A Gangster Depending Upon How Fast You Wanted A Suit. Gangsters Weren't The Stereotypes You See In The Movies. I Knew The Real Ones, And The Real Ones Were Out For Big Money.

I'm Not Interested In The Ego Trip Of Creating Or Not Creating. I'm Interested In Selling A Magazine. Rock-bottom, I Sell Magazines. I'm A Thorough Professional Who Does His Job.

I Could Do Whatever I Liked To Do During The Day. I Didn't Have To Work In An Office. I Could Work At Home. I Could Work At My Leisure. I Worked 'til Four In The Morning. I Worked With The Tv And Radio On - It Was A Great Setup. I Was A Night Person And Still Am.
