More quotes by Stephen King
As infants, our first victory comes in grasping some bit of the world, usually our mother's fingers. Later we discover that the world, and the things of the world, are grasping us, and have been all along.
Stephen King
The simple truth of things is that bad dreams are far better than bad wakings.
Stephen King
Las personas con un alto nivel de tolerancia al aburrimiento tienen tiempo de sobra para pensar.
Stephen King
It’s hard to let go. Even when what you’re holding onto is full of thorns, it’s hard to let go. Maybe especially then.
Stephen King
You know, Glen Bateman said, looking out toward Grand Junction in the early light of morning, I've heard the saying 'That sucks' for years without really being sure of what it meant. Now I think I know.
Stephen King
No writer, painter, or actor - no artist - is ever handed a sharp knife (although a few people are handed almighty big ones the name we give to the artist with the big knife is 'genius'), and we hone with varying degrees of zeal and aptitude.
Stephen King
There is zero, and there is eternity, and there is mortality, but there is no ultimate.
Stephen King
What Jack didn't understand was that no matter where he went, the same asshole got off the plane.
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
You could start at a path leading nowhere more fantastic than from your own front steps to the sidewalk, and from there you could go… well, anywhere at all.
Stephen King
Bad chances were better than no chances.
Stephen King
My mother was a reader, and she read to us. She read us Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde when I was six and my brother was eight I never forgot it.
Stephen King
I know life is hard, I think everyone knows that in their hearts, but why dos it have to be cruel, as well? Why does it have to bite?
Stephen King
Maybe that's why God made us kids first and built us close to the ground, because He knows you got to fall down a lot and bleed a lot before you learn that one simple lesson. You pay for what you get, you own what you pay for... and sooner or later whatever you own comes back home to you.
Stephen King
I believe the road to hell is paved with adverbs, and I will shout it from the rooftops.
Stephen King
He removed his unvaluable valuables and dumped his shirt, pants, and skivvies into a letter slot.
Stephen King
Superhero movies and comic books teach a lesson that runs directly counter to the culture-of-violence idea: guns are for bad guys too cowardly to fight like men.
Stephen King
I still think that of all the people doing top fiction today, John D. MacDonald is the best.He was my model as a kid. If there are people out there that want to write, all you need to do is read 20 of his stories to get an idea what it takes to make a story kick over.
Stephen King
Science is beginning to encroach on every level of our volition. And to me, that is a frightening social concept. It doesn't have anything to do with the right to have an abortion verses the right to life. It has to do with the ability of science to keep things alive and the ability of science to really control our lives.
Stephen King
Not writing would be like going the rest of your life without having dreams.
