More quotes by Stephen King
The mystery of the universe is not time but size.
Stephen King
I don't want to just mess with your head. I want to mess with your life.... I want you to miss appointments, burn dinner, skip your homework. I want you to tell your wife to take that moonlight stroll on the beach at Waikiki with the resort tennis pro while you read a few more chapters.
Stephen King
I've given up thinking - it keeps getting me into trouble.
Stephen King
Things were going very fast now. Too fast to suit him. Fantasy and reality had merged.

Stephen King
It's a mystery. That's the first thing that interests me about the idea of God. If there is one, it's mysterious and powerful and awesome to even consider the concept, and you have to take it seriously.
Stephen King
Writing isn't about making money, getting famous, getting dates, getting laid, or making friends. In the end, it's about enriching the lives of those who will read your work, and enriching your own life, as well. It's about getting up, getting well, and getting over. Getting happy, okay? Getting happy.
Stephen King
When you're six, most of your Bingo balls are still floating around in the draw-tank.
Stephen King
I have to remind myself that some birds aren’t meant to be caged. Their feathers are just too bright.
Stephen King
Say your name over two hundred times and discover you are no one.
Stephen King
Sooner or later everything you thought you'd left behind comes around again. For good or ill, it comes around again.
Stephen King
In polite society, we call our obsessions hobbies.
Stephen King
Anywhere in New York, anywhere in the country, somewhere there's going to be a Coke sign. People identify with Coke. You can write a novel about New York and people from the country will read it if they feel that you've made them familiar with New York.
