More quotes by Stephen King
It's better to be good than evil, but one achieves goodness at a terrific cost.
Stephen King
Cats were the gangsters of the animal world, living outside the law and often dying there. There were a great many of them who never grew old by the fire.
Stephen King
A product can be quickly outdated, but a successful brand is timeless.
Stephen King
Doubters will doubt to the end.
Stephen King
Terror. When you come home and notice everything you own has been taken away and replaced by an exact substitute. It’s when the lights go out and you feel something behind you-you hear it-you feel its breath against your ear, but when you turn around there’s nothing there.
Stephen King
But writers INVITE ghosts, maybe along with actors and artists, they are the only totally accepted mediums of our society. They make worlds that never were, populate them with people who never existed, and then invite us to join them in their fantasies. And we do it, don't we? Yes. We PAY to do it.
Stephen King
He who speaks without an attentive ear is mute.
Stephen King
It's a long way back to Eden, Sweetheart, so don't sweat the small stuff.
Stephen King
The more fiction you read and write, the more you'll find your paragraphs forming on their own.
Stephen King
There is no such thing as a happy ending. I never met a single one to equal Once upon a time.
Stephen King
Pain is the biggest power of love.
Stephen King
Words create sentences sentences create paragraphs sometimes paragraphs quicken and begin to breathe.
Stephen King
I did spend years as an addict, so I know that world, although I wish I didn't.
Stephen King
You know what talent is? The curse of expectation. As a kid you have to deal with that, beat it somehow. If you can write, you think God put you on earth to blow Shakespeare away. Or if you can paint, maybe you think--I did--that God put you on earth to blow your father away.
Stephen King
My books depend on someone in danger, putting pieces together and figuring things out. They do a lot of thinking, and that gets lost in the movie.
Stephen King
I'm afraid of all kinds of things. I'm afraid of failing at whatever story I'm writing - that it won't come up for me, or that I won't be able to finish it.
Stephen King
I believe most people are essentially good. I know that I am. It's you I'm not entirely sure of.
Stephen King
Parenting is the greatest of hum-a-few-bars-and-I'll-fake-it skills.
Stephen King
He found himself still with too many questions and not enough answers.
Stephen King
Above all else, be consistent.
Stephen King
