Stephen King
Writers write. That's all it is. It is as simple, and as complex, as that.
Stephen King
Sooner or later even the fastest runners have to stand and fight.
Stephen King
Talent is a dreadfully cheap commodity, cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work and study a constant process of honing. Talent is a dull knife that will cut nothing unless it is wielded with great force.
Stephen King
Sometimes the embers are better than the campfire.
Stephen King
Lightning flashed dully inside the clouds on the horizon making them look as if they had fireflies of their own, monster fireflies the size of dinosaurs.
