More quotes by Stephen King
You discarded most of the lies along the way but held on to the one that said life mattered.
Stephen King
Because things like this you can only ssay once. And you either get it wrong or right, it's the end either way, because it's too hard to ever try to say again.
Stephen King
And poets, in my view, and I think the view of most people, do speak God's language - it's better, it's finer, it's language on a higher plane than ordinary people speak in their daily lives.
Stephen King
It's hard for me to believe that people who read very little (or not at all in some cases) should presume to write and expect people to like what they have written.
Stephen King
He had never been a social man. He had shunned causes with contempt and disgust. They were for pig-simple suckers and people with too much time and money on their hands.
Stephen King
Has it ever occurred to you that parents are nothing but overgrown kids until their children drag them into adulthood? Usually kicking and screaming?
Stephen King
You need hedges.Hedges, I said, bemused. Yes, Edgar. He looked surprised and a little disappointed, as if I had failed to understand a very simple concept. Hedges against the night.
Stephen King
The beauty of religious mania is that it has the power to explain everything. Once God (or Satan) is accepted as the first cause of everything which happens in the mortal world, nothing is left to chance...logic can be happily tossed out the window.
Stephen King
There is zero, and there is eternity, and there is mortality, but there is no ultimate.
Stephen King
Your pimples are the Lord's way of chastising you. Now eat your pie.
Stephen King
And then the world exploded.
Stephen King
sure, we need the gypsies. we always have. because if you don't have someone to run out of town once in a while, how are you going to know you yourself belong there?
Stephen King
That's the day's business. Thinking. Thinking and isolation, because it doesn't matter if you pass the time of day with someone or not in the end, you're alone. He seemed to have put in as many miles in his brain as he had with his feet. The thoughts kept coming and there was no way to deny them.
Stephen King
I am the literary equivalent of a Big Mac and fries.
Stephen King
Talent is a wonderful thing, but it won't carry a quitter.
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
If you expect to succeed as a writer, rudeness should be the second-to-least of your concerns. The least of all should be polite society and what it expects. If you intend to write as truthfully as you can, your days as a member of polite society are numbered, anyway.
Stephen King
What you don’t know, you can’t tell. Or made to tell.
Stephen King
A lot of authority figures want to be good. I sense that, and yet at the same time I sense that authority, after a while, always leads to some kind of oppression. When the minority report comes in, what you do is run the minority out of town with a flaming cross. It's just the way things are.
Stephen King
The poets continually and sometimes wilfully mistake love. Love is the old slaughterer.
Stephen King
