Stephen King
C-C-Can you get bones in your buh-buh-brain?' Bill asked. This was turning into the most interesting conversation he'd had in weeks.
Stephen King
As with all other aspects of fiction, the key to writing good dialogue is honesty.
Stephen King
She did not know if her gift came from the lord of light or of darkness, and now, finally finding that she didn't care which, she wad overcome with almost indescribable relief, as if a huge weight, long carried, had slipped from her shoulders.
Stephen King
A coward judges all he sees by what he is.
Stephen King
You've got to do something to fill up your day. And I can only play so much guitar and watch so many TV shows. It fulfills me. There are two things about it I like: It makes me happy, and it makes other people happy.
Stephen King
We've switched from a culture that was interested in manufacturing, economics, politics - trying to play a serious part in the world - to a culture that's really entertainment-based.
Stephen King
Above all else, be consistent.
Stephen King
Go now. Our journey is done. And may we meet again, in the clearing, at the end of the path.
Stephen King
Every man or woman who loves Him, they hate Him too, because He's a hard God, a jealous God.
Stephen King
