I like to think that good people win. But even good people have other sides. Most people will slow down to get a good look at an accident, even though they won't admit it.
Stephen King
I did a couple of writing seminars in Canada with high school kids. These were the bright kids they all have computers, but they can't spell. Because spell-check won't [help] you if you don't know through from threw. I told them, If you can read in the 21st century, you own the world. Because you learn to write from reading.
Stephen King
We all do what we can, and it has to be good enough, and if it isn't good enough, it has to do.
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 things a man sees when he ain't got a gun.--Watson the Caretaker
Stephen King

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

Stephen King
I don't really map anything out. I just let it happen [while writing]. But once it happens, it's always there. If it's laid, it's played. If I get to page 300 and it's not working, I junk it.
Stephen King
A library card is good to have, you can never have too much ID.
Stephen King
The redness was going out of the light now, the remains of the day were a fading pink, the color of wild roses.
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
The last good time always comes, and when you see the darkness creeping toward you, you hold on to what was bright and good. You hold on for dear life.
Stephen King
you can, you should, and if you’re brave enough to start, you will.
Stephen King
There's nothing as human as hunger. There's no creation without talent, I give you that, but talent is cheap. Talent goes begging. Hunger is the piston of art.
Stephen King
Parenting is the greatest of hum-a-few-bars-and-I'll-fake-it skills.
Stephen King
You couldn't get hold of the things you'd done and turn them right again. Such a power might be given to the gods, but it was not given to women and men, and that was probably a good thing. Had it been otherwise, people would probably die of old age still trying to rewrite their teens.
Stephen King
When love leaves the world, all hearts are still. Tell them of my love and tell them of my pain and tell them of my hope, which still lives. For this is all I have and all I am and all I ask.
Stephen King
Politics always change. Stories never do.
Stephen King
Are you sure self-pity is a luxury you can afford, Jack?
