Look at it this way - a totem pole is just a decorated tree. My work is a confessional.

Being the lowest one on the totem pole is sometimes the fun part to play.

I think the bottom of the totem pole is African-American women, or women of colour. I think they get the least opportunities in Hollywood.

I have found some of the best reasons I ever had for remaining at the bottom simply by looking at the men at the top.

I'm getting in the studio with everybody I've always wanted to work with. That's the amazing thing.

The challenges I face in the studio pale in comparison to when I'm out in nature.

Musicians are at the bottom of the creative pyramid and authors are at the top, and many people think it's unacceptable for someone to attempt to jump from the bottom to the top of the pyramid.

I am an animator. I feel like I'm the manager of a animation cinema factory. I am not an executive. I'm rather like a foreman, like the boss of a team of craftsmen. That is the spirit of how I work.

I'm an all-or-nothing guy. When I'm working, I work, work, work, work, work, and when I'm not, I'm the laziest sloth this planet has ever provided us.
