- Alex: I think I was born because my parents had two boys and wanted to give it one more go and try for a girl...they got me instead. edit »
- Alex: Well, I think it was always kind of a given that it was going to be Stewie or Brian. Stewie's kind of our star, I think, so we couldn't not do it without him. I think it makes for the best kind of story, and because it's Stewie, anything's possible. (about writing the Family Guy movie.) edit »
