One of the things about animal rights, which is not the only thing that I care about in this world, is that your money can bring success. I see results.
Through PETA, we rescue animals in roadside zoos and circuses. They are some of the most abused animals in the country.
A lot of charities spend a million dollars on a fundraiser to make $15,000. It's a social swirl. They do some great stuff and then - it's called mission drift. It becomes more about the parties.
'The Simpsons' money got bigger and bigger. When I left 'The Simpsons', no one thought that this thing was going to still be around. It's the cumulative effect. It's like, 'Oh my God, 25 years later, and it's still coming in.'
I was just an animal lover. Everything that the Sam Simon Foundation does is supposed to help dogs and people - that's our mission.
