More quotes by Stephen King
Kids absolutely not reading. I think it's because they're so screen-oriented [TVs, computers, smartphones]. They do read - girls in particular read a lot. They have a tendency to go toward the paranormal, romances, Twilight and stuff like that. And then it starts to taper off because other things take precedence, like the Kardashian sisters.

Remember that 'plumber in space' is not such a bad setup for a story.
Stephen King
If you want to play, you gotta pay.
Stephen King

Stephen King
She ran out of her marriage the way a woman can run out of a pair of sandals when she decides to let go and really dash.

Wendy? Darling? Light, of my life. I'm not gonna hurt ya. I'm just going to bash your brains in.

Being sorry for myself is a luxury I can't afford.
Stephen King
Las personas con un alto nivel de tolerancia al aburrimiento tienen tiempo de sobra para pensar.
Stephen King
...you need openness and inability to do anything other than get to the point.
Stephen King
Until we see each other again, keep your head together, read some good books, be useful, be happy.
Stephen King
Grammar is...the pole you grab to get your thoughts up on their feet and walking.
Stephen King
God and the afterlife and all that is certainly a subject that's interested me, and I think it interests me more the older that I get.
Stephen King
Of course they had more chains on him than Scrooge saw on Marley's ghost, but he could have kicked up dickens if he'd wanted. That's a pun, son.
Stephen King
Until that afternoon in October four years ago, I hadn't known dogs could scream.
Stephen King
The dream didn't fade as dreams usually do upon waking.
Stephen King
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.
Stephen King
Time is a face on the water.
Stephen King
