More quotes by Stephen King
Get busy living, or get busy dying.
Stephen King
Rationalism is the idea that we can ever understand anything about the state of being. It's a deathtrip. It always has been. . . . And if rationalism is a deathtrip, then irrationalism might very well be a lifetrip . . . at least until it proves otherwise.
Stephen King
First comes smiles, then lies. Last is gunfire.-Roland Deschain, of Gilead
Stephen King
Legends grow beards, and twenty-three years is plenty of time to grow a long one.
Stephen King
Your first impulse is to share good news, your second is to club someone with it.
Stephen King
What I'd show you is much more bizarre than anything we have looked at so far, and I warn you in advance that the first impulse will be to laugh. That's all right. Laugh if you must. Just don't take your eye off what you see, for even in your imagination, here is a creature who can do you damage.
Stephen King
You can go through your whole life telling yourself that life is logical, life is prosaic, life is sane. Above all sane. And I think it is. I've had a lot of time to think about that. And what I keep coming back to is [her] dying declaration: 'So you understand that when we increase the number of variables, the axioms themselves never change.'
Stephen King
Semi-automatic s have only two purposes. One is so owners can take them to the shooting range once in a while, yell yeehaw, and get all horny at the rapid fire and the burning vapor spurting from the end of the barrel. Their other use-their only other use-is to kill people.
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
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
What you don’t know, you can’t tell. Or made to tell.
Stephen King
People seem to think there's a magic formula to writing, i just write 1 word at a time.
Stephen King
Just the act of cooking made her feel better, because cooking was life.
Stephen King
By its very nature, film is supposed to be an accessible medium to everybody.
Stephen King
The death of the music business was insane, but audio recordings have been around now for maybe 120 years. Books have been around for, what, nine centuries? So they're more entrenched than music.
Stephen King
I believe most people are essentially good. I know that I am. It's you I'm not entirely sure of.
Stephen King
Stories are artifacts, not really made things which we create and can take credit for, but pre-existing objects which we dig up.
Stephen King
The first draft of a book—even a long one—should take no more than three months, the length of a season.
Stephen King
In bowling and in life, if a person made the spares, the strikes would take care of themselves.
Stephen King
When you write a book, you spend day after day scanning and identifying the trees. When you’re done, you have to step back and look at the forest.
Stephen King
