...stupidity is one of the two things we see most clearly in retrospect. The other is missed chances.

When you write you tell yourself a story. When you rewrite you take out everything that is NOT the story.

If you intend to write as truthfully as you can, your days as a member of polite society are numbered, anyway... You must be prepared to do some serious turning inward toward the life of the imagination, and that means, I'm afraid, that Geraldo, Keith Obermann, and Jay Leno must go.

Forced to define 'irrational subconscious,' I would say that it is a small padded room inside all of us, where the only furnishing is a small card table, and the only thing on the card table is a revolver loaded with flexible bullets.

Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win.
Stephen King

There’s always a choice. That’s God’s way, always will be. Your will is still free. Do as you will. There’s no set of leg-irons on you. But... this is what God wants of you.

Put an egg in your shoe and beat it, make like a tree and leave, imitate an amoeba and split.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. When you find something at which you have talent, you do that thing (what ever it is) until your fingers bleed or your eyes pop out of your head.

We either learn to accept or we end up writing letters home with crayons.

The harder you had to work to open a package, the less you ended up caring about what was inside.

I think there ought to be some serious discussion by smart people, really smart people, about whether or not proliferation of things like The Smoking Gun and TMZ and YouTube and the whole celebrity culture is healthy.
