When you sit down to write, write. Don't do anything else except go to the bathroom, and only do that if it absolutely cannot be put off.
Stephen King
A lot of us grow up and we grow out of the literal interpretation that we get when we're children, but we bear the scars all our life. Whether they're scars of beauty or scars of ugliness, it's pretty much in the eye of the beholder.
Stephen King
Put an egg in your shoe and beat it, make like a tree and leave, imitate an amoeba and split.
Stephen King
Sarcastic people tend to be marshmallows underneath the armor
Stephen King
Don't look back, never look back. How often do people tell themselves that after an experience that is exceptionally good (or exceptionally bad?)? Often, I suppose. And the advice usually goes unheeded. Humans were built to look back that's why we have tat swivel joint in our necks.
Stephen King
I'm still in love with what I do, with the idea of making things up, so hours when I write always feel like very blessed hours to me.
Stephen King
What Jack didn't understand was that no matter where he went, the same asshole got off the plane.
Stephen King
Relief loosens tongues beyond measure.
Stephen King
I did spend years as an addict, so I know that world, although I wish I didn't.
Stephen King
I didn't want to even stand next to any high rise building as long as I lived... I didn't even want to go over a bridge.
Stephen King
Paul Edgecomb: What do you want me to do John? I'll do it. You want me to let you walk out of here and see how far you get? John Coffey: Now why would you want to do a foolish thing like that? Paul Edgecomb: When I die and I stand before God awaiting judgment and he asks me why I let one of HIS miracles die, what am I gonna say, that it was my job?
Stephen King
I don't want to sound like an ad, a public service ad on TV, but the fact is if you can read, you can walk into a job later on. If you don't, then you've got, the Army, Iraq, I don't know, something like that. It's, it's not as bright. So, that's my little commercial for that.
Stephen King
You don't always talk with your mouth. Sometimes what you say with your mouth hardly matters at all. You have to signify
Stephen King
Love is what moves the world, I've always thought...it is the only thing which allows men and women to stand in a world where gravity always seems to want to pull them down...bring them low...and make them crawl.
Stephen King
I want to engage the reader. I'm an emotional writer, in the sense that I would be happy if you re-read a book for the intellectual or the mental part of it, but, the first time, I just like to reach out and grab you, pull you in.
Stephen King
The book is not the important part. The book is the delivery system. The important part is the story and the talent.
Stephen King
In the end we always wear out our worries. That’s what Wireman says.
Stephen King
The definition of an asshole is someone who doesn't believe what he is seeing.
Stephen King
If we don't have each other, we go crazy with loneliness. When we do, we go crazy with togetherness.
Stephen King
That's the day's business. Thinking. Thinking and isolation, because it doesn't matter if you pass the time of day with someone or not in the end, you're alone. He seemed to have put in as many miles in his brain as he had with his feet. The thoughts kept coming and there was no way to deny them.
Stephen King
