More quotes by Stephen King
I know your mother lives in your head - almost everyone's mother does, I guess - but you can't let her have her way on this one
Stephen King
Writers write. That's all it is. It is as simple, and as complex, as that.
Stephen King
In the stutter-flashes of light, the clouds look like huge transparent brains filled with bad thoughts.
Stephen King
A short story is like a kiss in the dark.
Stephen King
I'm a situational writer. You give me a situation, like a writer gets in a car crash, breaks his leg, is kidnapped by his number-one fan, and is kept in a cabin and forced to write a book - everything else springs from there. You really don't have to work once you've had the idea. All you have to do is kind of take dictation from something inside.
Stephen King
He could feel the pores of his body open like a million mouths and slurp the water in like a sponge.
Stephen King
There is no Idea Dump, no Story Central, no Island of the Buried Bestsellers good stories seem to come quite literally from nowhere, sailing at you right out of the empty sky.
Stephen King
When you write you tell yourself a story. When you rewrite you take out everything that is NOT the story.
Stephen King
He was one of those quite rare adults who communicate with small children fairly well and who love them all impartially--not in a sugary way but in a businesslike fashion that may sometimes entail a hug, in the same way that closing a big business deal may call for a handshake.
Stephen King
Love didn't grow very well in a place where there was only fear
Stephen King
The unconscious mind writes poetry if it's left alone.
Stephen King
Pain is the biggest power of love.
Stephen King
One of life's great truths is this: when one is about to be struck by a speeding six-hundred pound Coke machine, one need worry about little else.
Stephen King
I think that we're all mentally ill. Those of us outside the asylums only hide it a little better - and maybe not all that much better after all.
Stephen King
I always felt that organized religion was just basically a theological insurance scam where they're saying if you spend time with us, guess what, you're going to live forever, you're going to go to some other plain where you're going to be so happy, you'll just be happy all the time, which is also kind of a scary idea to me.
Stephen King
Adults are the real monsters.
Stephen King
there's no harm in hoping for the best as long as you're prepared for the worst.
Stephen King
He remembered waking up once, listening to the wind, thinking of all the dark and rushing cold outside and all the warmth of this bed, filled with their peaceful heat under two quilts, and wishing it could be like this forever.
Stephen King
Love isn't soft, like the poets say. Love has teeth which bite and the wounds never close.
Stephen King
I have two amazing things in my life: I'm pain-free and I'm debt-free.
