...book-buyers aren't attracted, by and large, by the literary merits of a novel: book-buyers want a good story...something that will first fascinate them, then pull them in and keep them turning the pages.
Stephen King
I've killed enough of the world's trees.
Stephen King
Good writing is often about letting go of fear and affectation. Affectation itself, beginning with the need to define some sorts of writing as 'good' and other sorts as 'bad' is fearful behavior.
Stephen King

Stephen King
They're animals, all right. But why are you so goddam sure that makes us human beings?
Stephen King
Everything is sort of built in a way that to me suggests intelligent design. But at the same time, there's a lot of things in life where you say to yourself, well, if this is God's plan, it's very peculiar. And you have to wonder about that guy's personality, the big guy's personality.
Stephen King
To write is human, to edit is divine.

Stephen King
And in the gunslinger's mind, those words echoed: You dare not.
Stephen King
Marriage is referred to in the bible as “mystical union,” and it really is in the sense that two people who don’t know each other get together. I’m always interested in how much you find out about the other person and how much you don’t find out.
Stephen King
The book is not the important part. The book is the delivery system. The important part is the story and the talent.
