Wherever you write is supposed to be a little bit of a refuge, a place where you can get away from the world. The more closed in you are, the more youre forced back on your own imagination. – Stephen King
We like to think about how smart we are. But I think talent as a writer is hard-wired in, its all there, at least the basic elements of it. You cant change it any more than you can choose whether to be right handed or left handed. – Stephen King
When his life was ruined, his family killed, his farm destroyed, Job knelt down on the ground and yelled up to the heavens, Why god? Why me? and the thundering voice of God answered, Theres just something about you that pisses me off. – Stephen King
I was in enough to get along with people. I was never socially inarticulate. Not a loner. And that saved my life, saved my sanity. That and the writing. But to this day I distrust anybody who thought school was a good time. Anybody. – Stephen King
