"You cannot hope to sweep someone else away by the force of your writing until it has been done to you." ― Stephen King Topic(s): Hope Tags: cannot, sweep More From Stephen King "I watched Titanic when I got back home from the hospital, and cried. I knew that my IQ had been damaged." "We like to think about how smart we are. But I think talent as a writer is hard-wired in, it’s all there, at least the basic elements of it. You can’t change it any more than you can choose whether to be right handed or left handed." "Like anything else that happens on its own, the act of writing is beyond currency. Money is great stuff to have, but when it comes to the act of creation, the best thing is not to think of money too much. It constipates the whole process."

That part of eternity dividing the domain of disappointment from the realm of hope."― Ambrose Bierce
