More quotes by Stephen King
Love isn't soft, like the poets say. Love has teeth which bite and the wounds never close.
Stephen King
It’s hard to let go. Even when what you’re holding onto is full of thorns, it’s hard to let go. Maybe especially then.
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
Might as well try to drink the ocean with a spoon as argue with a lover.
Stephen King
I was being paid to do what I loved, and there's no gig on earth better than that it's like a license to steal.
Stephen King
Pride was the belt you used to hold your pants up when you had no pants.
Stephen King
When you write, you want to get rid of the world, don’t you? Of course you do. When you’re writing, you’re creating your own worlds.
Stephen King
Love didn't grow very well in a place where there was only fear
Stephen King
Adults are the real monsters.
Stephen King
Everything that goes around comes around, they say, and although I've never been able to figure out who the mysteriously wise sages known as they might be, they're certainly right when it comes to time-travel.
Stephen King
Like anything else that happens on its own, the act of writing is beyond currency. Money is great stuff to have, but when it comes to the act of creation, the best thing is not to think of money too much. It constipates the whole process.
Stephen King
We fool ourselves so much we could do it for a living.
Stephen King
Don’t go beyond, no matter how much you feel you need to, Doctor. The barrier was not made to be broken. Remember this: there is more power here than you know. It is old and always restless. Remember.
Stephen King
Guys like Henry and his buddies were an accident waiting to happen the little kids' version of floods or tornadoes or gallstones.
Stephen King
Your pimples are the Lord's way of chastising you. Now eat your pie.
Stephen King
I'm a slow reader, but I usually get through seventy or eighty books a year, most fiction. I don't read in order to study the craft I read because I like to read
Stephen King
Sooner or later even the fastest runners have to stand and fight.
Stephen King
Clear communication between selves - the surface self and the deep self - is the enemy of self-doubt. It slays confusion.
Stephen King
I think everybody has experiences from time to time they can't explain. They are peculiarities. Usually we just dismiss them because they are uncomfortable to think about.
Stephen King
The ghost story movie that scared me the most was The Changeling with George C. Scott. I think that's sometimes overlooked, but it's a wonderful piece of work.
Stephen King
