Delightfully saucy Bart
“One of Bart's blackboard punishments was to write, 'I am not delightfully saucy.' But he is, he is -- a complex weave of grace, attitude and personality, deplorable and adorable, a very '90s slacker who embodies a century of popular culture and is one of the richest characters in it. One thinks of Chekhov, Celine, Lenny Bruce, little boy lost. Anyway, we love the kid and his endlessly terrific show.”
-- Time magazine senior writer Richard Corliss in a tribute to Bart Simpson. The spunky cartoon character was lauded as one of the top 20 artists and entertainers of the 20th century, along with James Joyce, Coco Chanel, Pablo Picasso and Lucile Ball. From the June 8 Time.
