If I need something, I'll invent it.

Very few of us have any idea whatsoever of what life is like living in a goldfish bowl, except, of course, for those of us who are goldfish.

I think there's something great and generic about goldfish. They're everybody's first pet.

My training and my inclination is to invent.

I can fish from a stick and a string.

If you throw the pebble in the pond and the rings start circulating that much wider, you've done things and created things for people that they didn't think they'd ever be able to do. That excites me.

My joking answer to this question is that I leave a bowl of milk out on the back porch every night for the Idea Fairy. In the morning, the milk is gone and there's a brand-new shiny idea by the bowl.

When I was about ten years old, I gave my teacher an April Fool's sandwich, which had a dead goldfish in it.
