More quotes by Stephen King
Her body was wrapped in shadows like moth wings, like rose-petals.
Stephen King
I have no opinion. No, none at all. Opinion is politics, and politics is an evil which has caused many a fellow to be hung while he's still young and pretty.
Stephen King
I recognize terror as the finest emotion and so I will try to terrorize the reader. But if I find that I cannot terrify, I will try to horrify, and if I find that I cannot horrify, I'll go for the gross-out. I'm not proud.
Stephen King
You cannot condemn a man for what may only be a figment of your own imagination.
Stephen King
The Overlook was still not done with him. Written on the mirror, not in lipstick but in blood, was a single word: REDRUM
Stephen King
Definition of a wanderer: a guy who's always looking beyond.
Stephen King
I don't really map anything out. I just let it happen [while writing]. But once it happens, it's always there. If it's laid, it's played. If I get to page 300 and it's not working, I junk it.

Stephen King
In small towns people scent the wind with noses of uncommon keenness.
Stephen King
My books depend on someone in danger, putting pieces together and figuring things out. They do a lot of thinking, and that gets lost in the movie.
Stephen King
When love leaves the world, all hearts are still. Tell them of my love and tell them of my pain and tell them of my hope, which still lives. For this is all I have and all I am and all I ask.
Stephen King
The only wat to get better at writing is to write. And read.
Stephen King
In polite society, we call our obsessions hobbies.
Stephen King
If God rewards us on earth for good deeds—the Old Testament suggests it’s so, and the Puritans certainly believed it—then maybe Satan rewards us for evil ones.
Stephen King
When all else fails, give up and go to the library.
Stephen King
Take the dead from the dead, the old proverb said only a corpse may speak true prophecy.
Stephen King
Dolls with no little girls around to mind them were sort of creepy under any conditions.
Stephen King
I tend to scare myself.
Stephen King
Nora Roberts is cool.
Stephen King
Somebody asked Somerset Maugham about his place in the pantheon of writers, and he said, I'm in the very front row of the second rate. I'm sort of haunted by that.
Stephen King
