Stephen King

Simplified Meaning:

Choosing your words carefully is really important because using too many unnecessary words can make your message less clear. For example, if you say "She quickly ran," adding "quickly" doesn’t add much meaning because running is already fast. In writing or speaking, if we use too many extra words (like adverbs), it can make what we’re saying confusing or less powerful. It’s like trying to describe something and including too many details that distract from the main point. In life, it’s often better to be straightforward and to the point instead of overly complicated. This advice can help you communicate more effectively, making your ideas stronger and easier for others to understand. So, when you speak or write, think about the essential parts and focus on those.
