Stephen King
Not writing would be like going the rest of your life without having dreams.
Stephen King

Stephen King
The dream might have been more than a dream. It was as if a door in the wall of reality had come ajar... and now all sorts of unwelcome things were flying through.
Stephen King
Life turns on a dime. Sometimes towards us, but more often it spins away, flirting and flashing as it goes: so long, honey, it was good while it lasted, wasn’t it?
Stephen King

Stephen King
He who speaks without an attentive ear is mute.
Stephen King

Stephen King
