Stephen King
The idea for a novel is like a little tiny fire in a dark night. And, one by one, the characters come and stand around it and warm their hands.
Stephen King
Fear is the emotion that makes us blind.
Stephen King
You discarded most of the lies along the way but held on to the one that said life mattered.
Stephen King
How else could he go on, except with merciful incomprehension held before him like a shield? How could anyone?
