You Can Read A Shakespeare Play, But

To Tell You The Truth, I Never Thought Of Myself As Much Of A Success.

There's Just Something That Feels Nice About Holding A Comic Book!

Jack [kirby] And Joe [simon] Wrote And Drew The Stories Themselves In The Beginning And I Was Just, Like, The Office Boy. But After A While They Had More Writing Than They Could Handle And I Was The Only Guy Around, So They Said, "hey Stan, You Think You Can Write This?" When You're Seventeen Years Old, What Do You Know? I Said, "sure, I Can Do It!" And That Was It.

I'm Sort Of A Pressure Writer. If Somebody Says, "stan, Write Something," And I Have To Have It By Tomorrow Morning, I'll Just Sit Down And I'll Write It. It Always Seems To Come To Me. But I'm Better Doing A Rushed Job Because If It Isn't Something That's Due Quickly, I Won't Work On It Until It Becomes Almost An Emergency And Then I'll Do It.

When You Can Sit Down With A Plain Sheet Of Paper In Front Of You And Make Some Notes, And, Little By Little, You See It Take Shape And Become A Concept For A Movie Or A Tv Show. That's A Real Thrill. You Watch It Go From Notes On A Paper To A Meeting With Writers And Directors And Actors. I Can't Think Of Anything That's More Exciting.
