Later by stephen king6/20/2023 ![]() One of the worst things about being a kid, maybe the very worst, is how grownups ignore you when they get going on their shit. I don’t mean to scare you, but sometimes a scare is the only lesson that works. When they find out as kids that Santa Claus is a fake and Goldilocks isn’t a real girl and the Easter Bunny is bullshit – just three examples, I could give more – it makes a complex and they stop believing anything they can’t see for themselves. Grownups have a tough time believing, and I’ll tell you why. Like being left-handed, or being able to play classical music when you’re like three years old, or getting early-onset Alzheimer’s. ![]() It can be interesting, it can be scary sometimes, it can be a pain in the ass, but mostly it just is. – from Later book by Stephen KingĮven a little kid knows certain basic things if he’s not soft in the attic. I may change my mind when I’m older, but I really don’t think so. When the fickle finger of fate points at you, all roads lead to the same place, that’s what I think. I think that people who say life is all about the choices we make and the roads we go down are full of shit. When you’re little and it’s your mom, you say okay to everything. – from Later book by Stephen King – #talent-quotes Sometimes talent comes from nowhere, or so it seems. ![]() ![]() ![]() Parents who can’t carry a tune in a tin pail can produce a singing prodigy illiterates can produce a great writer. ![]()
