The simple truth of things is that bad dreams are far better than bad wakings.
Stephen King
Image
What happens to the wide-eyed observer when the window between reality and unreality breaks and the glass begins to fly?
Stephen King

...you need openness and inability to do anything other than get to the point.
Stephen King
Image
The essential and defining characteristic of childhood is not the effortless merging of dream and reality, but only alienation. There are no words for childhood's dark turns and exhalations. A wise child recognizes it and submits to the necessary consequences. A child who counts the cost is a child no longer.

Reading takes time, and the glass teat takes too much of it.
Stephen King
Image
And didn't they say that, although curiosity killed the cat, satisfaction brought the beast back?
Stephen King
Image
It's been quite a while since I was really afraid that there was a boogeyman in my closet, although I am still very careful to keep my feet under the covers when I go to sleep, because the covers are magic, and if your feet are covered, it's like boogeyman Kryptonite.

Fighting for peace, is like f***ing for chastity
Stephen King
Image
You could not turn off love- even the rather absent, sometimes taken for granted love- the way you'd turn off a faucet. Love ran from the heart and the heart had it's own imperatives
Stephen King
Image
On the day of my judgment, when I stand before God, and He asks me why did I kill one of his true miracles, what am I gonna say? That it was my job? My job?
Stephen King
Image
Art is the concrete artifact of faith and expectation, the realization of a world that would otherwise be little more than a veil of pointless consciousness stretched over a gulf of mystery.
Stephen King
Image
People seem to think there's a magic formula to writing, i just write 1 word at a time.
Stephen King

Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.
