More quotes by Stephen King
I'd been raised by my parents to believe barfing your feelings on other people was the height of impoliteness.
Stephen King
I don't take notes I don't outline, I don't do anything like that. I just flail away at the goddamn thing. I'm a salami writer. I try to write good salami, but salami is salami. You can't sell it as caviar.
Stephen King
A product can be quickly outdated, but a successful brand is timeless.
Stephen King
Human Nature Baby, grab it and growl.
Stephen King
It was life, often unsatisfying, frequently cruel, usually boring, sometimes beautiful, once in a while exhilarating.
Stephen King
It's a long way back to Eden, Sweetheart, so don't sweat the small stuff.
Stephen King

Stephen King
Go now. Our journey is done. And may we meet again, in the clearing, at the end of the path.
Stephen King
Time apparently did nothing but blunt grief’s sharpest edge so that it hacked rather than sliced.
Stephen King
People think first love is sweet, and never sweeter than when that first bond snaps. You've heard a thousand pop and country songs that prove the point some fool got his heart broke. Yet that first broken heart is always the most painful, the slowest to mend, and leaves the most visible scar. What's so sweet about that?
Stephen King
A person can't change all at once.
Stephen King
The shining. It was a good name, a comforting name, because she had always thought of it as a dark thing.
Stephen King
I think that friendship always makes us feel such sweet gratitude, because the world almost always seems like a very hard desert, and the flowers that grow there seem to grow against such high odds.
Stephen King
The multiple choices of possibilities of daily life are the music we dance to.
Stephen King
So where do the ideas-the salable ideas-come from? They come from my nightmares. Not the night-time variety, as a rule, but the ones that hide just beyond the doorway that separates the conscious from the unconscious.
Stephen King
Semi-automatic s have only two purposes. One is so owners can take them to the shooting range once in a while, yell yeehaw, and get all horny at the rapid fire and the burning vapor spurting from the end of the barrel. Their other use-their only other use-is to kill people.
Stephen King
I go where the story leads. And, sometimes, it is a little bit outrageous. And I relish that. I sort of want to be as much on the edge as I can.
Stephen King
Time is a face on the water.
Stephen King
I'm still in love with what I do, with the idea of making things up, so hours when I write always feel like very blessed hours to me.
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?
