More quotes by Stephen King
It's a mystery. That's the first thing that interests me about the idea of God. If there is one, it's mysterious and powerful and awesome to even consider the concept, and you have to take it seriously.
Stephen King
Sooner or later everything you thought you'd left behind comes around again. For good or ill, it comes around again.
Stephen King
On the day of my judgment, when I stand before God, and He asks me why did I kill one of his true miracles, what am I gonna say? That it was my job? My job?
Stephen King
He understood well enough how a man with a choice between pride and responsibility will almost always choose pride--if responsibility robs him of his manhood.
Stephen King
You said 'God is cruel' the way a person who's lived his whole life on Tahiti might say 'Snow is cold'. You knew, but you didn't understand. He stepped close to David and put his palms on the boy's cold cheeks. Do you know how cruel your God can be, David. How fantastically cruel?
Stephen King
I can't lie and say there are no bad writers. Sorry, but there are lots of bad writers.
Stephen King
Science is beginning to encroach on every level of our volition. And to me, that is a frightening social concept. It doesn't have anything to do with the right to have an abortion verses the right to life. It has to do with the ability of science to keep things alive and the ability of science to really control our lives.
Stephen King
It didn´t occur to me until later that there´s another truth, very simple: greed in a good cause is still greed.
Stephen King
Fantasy has a better chance of lasting than a lot of other things. The Hobbit and the Narnia books, they seem to get handed down father to son, mother to daughter. Because they're set in a fantasy world, they can remain relevant.
Stephen King
We've switched from a culture that was interested in manufacturing, economics, politics - trying to play a serious part in the world - to a culture that's really entertainment-based.
Stephen King
It's been quite a while since I was really afraid that there was a boogeyman in my closet, although I am still very careful to keep my feet under the covers when I go to sleep, because the covers are magic, and if your feet are covered, it's like boogeyman Kryptonite.
Stephen King
Once, during the drinking phase, Wendy had accused him of desiring his own destruction but not possessing the necessary moral fiber to support a full-blown deathwish. So he manufactured ways in which other people could do it, lopping a piece at a time off himself and their family.
Stephen King
I've put men to death-men with supposedly immortal souls-that looked dumber than that mouse
Stephen King
If you liked being a teenager, there's something really wrong with you.
Stephen King
Bloom never pissed me off because there are critics out there, and he's one of them, who take their ignorance about popular culture as a badge of intellectual prowess.
Stephen King
We either learn to accept or we end up writing letters home with crayons.
Stephen King
It hurt, of course, but more often than not the best things do, I've found.
Stephen King
The definition of an asshole is someone who doesn't believe what he is seeing.
Stephen King
I have to remind myself that some birds aren’t meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright.
Stephen King
The multiple choices of possibilities of daily life are the music we dance to.
