More quotes by Stephen King
Until that afternoon in October four years ago, I hadn't known dogs could scream.
Stephen King
He had never been a social man. He had shunned causes with contempt and disgust. They were for pig-simple suckers and people with too much time and money on their hands.
Stephen King
Everything is sort of built in a way that to me suggests intelligent design. But at the same time, there's a lot of things in life where you say to yourself, well, if this is God's plan, it's very peculiar. And you have to wonder about that guy's personality, the big guy's personality.
Stephen King
He supposed that even in Hell, people got an occasional sip of water, if only so they could appreciate the full horror of unrequited thirst when it set in again.
Stephen King
High school isn't a very important place. When you're going you think it's a big deal, but when it's over nobody really thinks it was great unless they're beered up.
Stephen King
Did it [cocaine] for about eight years. Not a terribly long time to be an addict I guess, but it is longer than World War II.
Stephen King
Somebody asked Somerset Maugham about his place in the pantheon of writers, and he said, I'm in the very front row of the second rate. I'm sort of haunted by that.
Stephen King
Passing time adds false memories and modifies real ones.
Stephen King
Read a lot, write a lot is the great commandment.
Stephen King
Lightning flashed dully inside the clouds on the horizon making them look as if they had fireflies of their own, monster fireflies the size of dinosaurs.
Stephen King
Everyone needs a hobby, he said. And everyone needs a miracle or two, just to prove life is more than just one long trudge from the cradle to the grave.
Stephen King
A library card is good to have, you can never have too much ID.
Stephen King
In bowling and in life, if a person made the spares, the strikes would take care of themselves.
Stephen King
I have two amazing things in my life: I'm pain-free and I'm debt-free.
Stephen King
there is no gain without risk, perhaps no risk without love.
Stephen King
I am, when you stop to think of it, a member of a fairly select group: the final handful of American novelists who learned to read and write before they learned to eat a daily helping of video bullshit.
Stephen King
If you were seeing a lot of horseshit, there had to be a pony in the vicinity.
Stephen King
People who try hard to do the right thing always seem mad.
Stephen King
Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win.
Stephen King
No writer, painter, or actor - no artist - is ever handed a sharp knife (although a few people are handed almighty big ones the name we give to the artist with the big knife is 'genius'), and we hone with varying degrees of zeal and aptitude.
