Quote by Stephen King

Do grown men always have to play games? Does everything have to be an excuse for another kind of game? Do any men grow up or do they only come of age?

Do grown men always have to play games? Does everything have

Summary

This quote questions the tendency of grown men to engage in games or disguise their actions as just another form of game-playing. It probes whether men ever truly mature or if they simply transition from one stage of life to another without fully growing up. The quote highlights the perception that some men tend to rely on games or distractions as a way to avoid taking responsibility or confronting the challenges of adulthood. It suggests a critical view of this behavior, questioning the extent to which men genuinely develop or simply exist in a perpetual state of immaturity.

The composition of this book has been for the author a long struggle of escape, and so must the reading of it be for most readers if the authors assault upon them is to be successful,a struggle of escape from habitual modes of thought and expression. The ideas which are here expressed so laboriously are extremely simple and should be obvious. The difficulty lies, not in the new ideas, but in escaping from the old ones, which ramify, for those brought up as most of us have been, into every corner of our minds.

I believe that science fiction is as profound as you want it

I believe that science fiction is as profound as you want it to be or it can be very simple entertainment, and I'm all for very simple entertainment. Every now and then we all need to come home, veg-out, watch something and not think too deeply about it. It's what you want it to be. We tend to steer clear of being pedantic; it's entertainment first, otherwise we'd be on a lecture circuit.
