More quotes by Stephen King
What Jack didn't understand was that no matter where he went, the same asshole got off the plane.
Stephen King
I got letters from people that have had peculiar psychic experiences, experiences with the dead - sometimes fairly tranquil experiences and sometimes very terrifying experiences. I do believe that a lot of them are sincere. I do believe, also, that some of them may be misguided. But, I think the majority of them have experienced something.
Stephen King
If God rewards us on earth for good deeds—the Old Testament suggests it’s so, and the Puritans certainly believed it—then maybe Satan rewards us for evil ones.
Stephen King
Life turns on a dime.
Stephen King
I write in the mornings, in the bright daylight. But I get most of my good ideas after the sun has gone down and the dark is on the land.
Stephen King
A coward judges all he sees by what he is.
Stephen King
But this wealth of information produced little or no insight.
Stephen King
There was a beautiful feeling of calm in my groin, a sense of peace so remarkable it was almost ecstasy——anyone who' suffered bad pain and then recovered will know what I'm talking about.
Stephen King
And I guess you judge how well you're doing by how well you sleep at night... and what your dreams are like.
Stephen King
My father had taught me - mostly by example - that if a man wanted to be in charge of his life, he had to be in charge of his problems.
Stephen King
Wendy? Darling? Light, of my life. I'm not gonna hurt ya. I'm just going to bash your brains in.
Stephen King
I think a lot of times dreams are nothing more than a kind of mental or spiritual flatulence. They're a way of relieving pressure.
Stephen King
The only religions I don't like are the ones that insist their God is bigger than your God.
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
As a rule, I don't worry about genre. I just want to tell a good story, with characters that interest me and my readers.
Stephen King
My mother was a reader, and she read to us. She read us Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde when I was six and my brother was eight I never forgot it.
Stephen King
Let's face it. No kid in high school feels as though they fit in.
Stephen King
I love my sons and I love that they are writers - I also love my daughter, who's a minister and an orchard keeper! - but I wouldn't wish the burden of Mid-World and the Dark Tower on them. I enjoy working with them, though, because we fit together.
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
They were still all beautiful and there was still enchantment and wonder, but she had crossed a line and now the fairy tale was green with corruption and evil.
Stephen King
