From Hearts in Atlantis, by Stephen King:
"There are also books full of great writing that don't have very good stories. Read something for the story, Bobby. 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 that won't do that. But when you find a book that has both a good story and good words, treasure that book."
