"Palnik expresses his philosophy in images and fantasies drawn with originality. He is in his own way unique." Isaac Bashevis Singer, Winner of The Nobel Prize for Literature.

"Palnik's calendar with its words and drawings is a gift, a beautiful gift." Ellie Wiesel, Winner of The Nobel Prize for Peace.

"Paul Palnik's drawings hang on my wall, I give them to friends as gifts. He has the skill of a fine cartoonist and the insights of a wise man. To use the steel of wit in a cynical way is not hard, but to use it constructively takes genius and a generous spirit, not in short supply in Palnik's extraordinary art." Robert Fulghum, Author and religous philosopher.

"What a breath of fresh air! Palnik's drawings are terrific. I found myself laughing out loud alone in my office and trying to overcome my desire to sit all day and read his book. I thoroughly enjoyed it." Bill Moyers, PBS Television.

"Palnik calls himself a cartoonist, but his prints go well beyond a common notion of cartooning, they are masterly pieces of graphic art. His works relate to the satirical traditions started in graphic art by Goya and Daumier; a tradition that has adopted the popular imagery of caricature and deals with social and moral issues. He has raised cartooning to the rank of high art." Tamara Shamson, Journal of the Print World.

"Palnik's cartoons have three dimensions within them; the Black and White and the Soul. Contrary to many other cartoons you feel that his images are living, almost popping out, ready for action and full of wit." Ranan Lurie, Time Magazine

"Paul Palnik's pen traces the mewlings and pukings, pusillanimities and peccadilloes, of poor little us, Mannikinkind. He is a universal Gilray for today and his draughtmanship is exquisite. If you already have your Hogarths, Bunburys and Cruickshanks, Steigs and Gluyas Williams, you must add to them your Paul Palniks." Chauncey Howell, Art Critic NBC Television

"Palnik represents the very best of highly imaginative and sensitive cartoon art. His work abounds with intelligence and humor." Will Eisner, International Museum of Cartoon Art

"Palnik's cartoons offer a spiritual message for today's time...and they're funny, too." Union of American Hebrew Congregations.

"Palnik's creativity has broad and timeless appeal." Prof. Lucy Caswell, Curator. The Cartoon Research Library, The Wexner Center, The Ohio State University.

"If laughter is holy, then Paul Palnik is the Pope." Books and Religion.

"Palnik's unsophisticated characters place a very deep and delicate matter on a stage where it can be treated as a whole - as an imaginative, emotional, and intellectual reality." The American Baptists Magazine

"His work is absolutely unforgettable. One laughs with Palnik's cartoons; but sometimes one only smiles sadly, because his humor is the type that goes deeply into your foibles and struggles with life." The Cleveland Plain Dealer

"Paul Palnik's art carries with it an inspiring message for men and women today. For amidst the persuasive gloom and cyncism of our times, his posters, affirm the joys of life, and the existence of a moral order to the universe." Dr. Edward Hoffman The Four Worlds Journal, New York City.
