[Charles M. Schultz is] possibly the greatest cartoonist who ever lived

* Guardian *

Forget Wittgenstein and Sartre, the great 20th century philosopher was Snoopy

* Daily Mail *

I grew up with <i>Peanuts</i>. But I never outgrew it . . . For decades, it was our own daily security blanket. That's what makes <i>Peanuts</i> an American treasure

- PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA,

No comic strip before <i>Peanuts</i> ever felt like it was talking to me. I always felt like I knew Charlie Brown and all the other characters and I understood them in a way that I never did with any other strip

- WHOOPI GOLDBERG,

Charles Schulz's brilliant, angst-ridden, truly funny, fifty-year-long masterpiece of joy and heartbreak

- MATT GROENING,

Charles Schulz was, plain and simple, a great artist and philosopher . . . But most importantly, he teaches all ages that if you can learn to laugh at the things that cause you the most pain you will be the strongest of all. <i>Peanuts</i>: a real way of life

- JOHN WATERS,

- BILL CLINTON,

- BILL WATERSON, author of CALVIN & HOBBES,

The kids (and canines) of Peanuts know a thing or two about how tough life can be. But with a philosophical approach to the trials and tribulations of growing up - from not being able to talk to the girl you like, to having an idiot brother who won't take your flawless advice - they're never short of the small comforts, and the great wisdom, that can help us get by.
