Looking back on it, Sloat wasn't sure how he had tolerated Phil Sawyer for as long as he had.

Additional quotes by Stephen King

There are books full of great writing that don't have very good stories. Read sometimes for the story... don't be like the book-snobs who won't do that. Read sometimes for the words — the language. Don't be like the play-it-safers who won't do that. But when you find a book that has both a good story and good words, treasure that book.
