Bigs Quote by Don Hertzfeldt
![“It's great for me to hear those different reactions because when I travel with a movie like this [World of Tommorow], it's very similar. You'll hear a line in one city get a big laugh, and then in another city, the same line kind of gets a gasp, and that's wonderful.” quote by Don Hertzfeldt](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/5a1/don-hertzfeldt-16260_bigs_it-s-great-for-me-to-hear-those-differen_2121529.jpg)

![“I have friends and illustrators who can't stand drawing on the Cintiq.
