More quotes by Stephen King
Life turns on a dime.
Stephen King
...you need openness and inability to do anything other than get to the point.
Stephen King
When I start a story, I don't know where it's going.
Stephen King
I've put men to death-men with supposedly immortal souls-that looked dumber than that mouse
Stephen King
It's as if God gave you something-all those stories- and said, Here you are. Try not to lose it. But children lose everything unless somebody is there to help them, and if your parents are too stupid to do it, maybe i ought to.
Stephen King
Writing is like being in a dream state or under self-directed hypnosis. It induces a state of recall that - while not perfect - is pretty spooky.
Stephen King
What happens to the wide-eyed observer when the window between reality and unreality breaks and the glass begins to fly?
Stephen King
It was the possibility of darkness that made the day seem so bright.
Stephen King
The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there... and still on your feet.
Stephen King
I just write about what I feel I want to write about. I'm like a kid. I get an idea, and it's like a kid's toy that you push and tug around the room. It's fun, it's bright, it's pretty and maybe it'll go clack-clack or whiz-whiz, whatever it happens to do. I like to make believe.
Stephen King
And in real life endings aren't always neat, whether they're happy endings, or whether they're sad endings.
Stephen King
A writer's notebook is the best way in the world to immortalize bad ideas. My idea about a good idea is one that sticks around and sticks around and sticks around.
Stephen King
To me, the greatest thing in the world is downloading TV shows on iTunes because there are no commercials, and yet if I were a working stiff, I could never afford to do this. But I don't even think about money.
Stephen King
Who gets to be best-liked in any community? Who is the most trusted? Why, the man who does the dirty job, of course, and does it with a smile. The man who does the job you couldn't bring yourself to do.
Stephen King
Perfect paranoia is perfect awareness.
Stephen King
I am in trouble here. This woman is not right.
Stephen King
Superhero movies and comic books teach a lesson that runs directly counter to the culture-of-violence idea: guns are for bad guys too cowardly to fight like men.
Stephen King
You're dead, George. You just don't have the sense to lie down.
Stephen King
There’s always a choice. That’s God’s way, always will be. Your will is still free. Do as you will. There’s no set of leg-irons on you. But... this is what God wants of you.
Stephen King
If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.
Stephen King
