"I always just wanted to be funny. I never really planned to be scary." ― R. L. Stine Topic(s): Funny More From R. L. Stine "It’s hard for children’s authors to be accepted when they try to write adult books. J.K. Rowling is the exception because people are so eager to read anything by her, but it took Judy Blume three or four tries before she had a success." "Everything that has happened to me has been amazing and surprising." "I’ve never dreamed of a story idea. I have such boring dreams." More In Funny "But you can’t focus on things that matter if all you’ve been is asleep for forty years. Funny how sleep rhymes with sheep. You know."― Charlie Sheen "Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides."― Lao Tzu "I never know when I am being funny, and the other way too. I don’t think you can think about that. I don’t think you can try to be funny. Some people are just funny."― Christopher Walken
