Stephen King
Sooner or later even the fastest runners have to stand and fight.
Stephen King

Stephen King
It was life, often unsatisfying, frequently cruel, usually boring, sometimes beautiful, once in a while exhilarating.
Stephen King
If you want to play, you gotta pay.
Stephen King
I think that we're all mentally ill. Those of us outside the asylums only hide it a little better - and maybe not all that much better after all.
Stephen King
We all float down here!
Stephen King
Any game looks straight if everyone is being cheated at once.
Stephen King
Sometimes [...] real love is silent as well as blind.
Stephen King
The ghost story movie that scared me the most was The Changeling with George C. Scott. I think that's sometimes overlooked, but it's a wonderful piece of work.
