I think the model that I look at is someone like Jakob Dylan, whose dad is obviously every bit if not more famous than mine. He's a guy who sought to build a career on his own, doing something that's a little bit different than what his father does.

I didn't want to write a book as Stephen King's son, because all I did was get born, and that's not much of an accomplishment. If that was the reason my book was published, it wouldn't be worth the paper it was printed on. I wanted to do my own thing.

The last thing I want to do is to present something as 'Stephen King, Part II,' and have it be something that's a big disappointment.

Just because it's physically impossible for Steve Buscemi to be in every movie doesn't mean he's not capable of dramatically improving them all.

I think that many of my ideas are correct, but I'll bet you, before my death other discoveries will be made that will prompt me to alter various ideas I have about human evolution.

Shrinking away from death is something unhealthy and abnormal which robs the second half of life of its purpose.

I'm certainly not squeamish at all. The countryside makes you very aware of birth and death.

You've got all these people making action movies, and they've never been in a life-or-death situation.
