More quotes by Stephen King

Stephen King
You know what talent is? The curse of expectation. As a kid you have to deal with that, beat it somehow. If you can write, you think God put you on earth to blow Shakespeare away. Or if you can paint, maybe you think--I did--that God put you on earth to blow your father away.
Stephen King
I tend to scare myself.
Stephen King
City life is no life for a country man for such a man that life is a kind of damnation in itself.
Stephen King

Stephen King
Ka was a wheel it was also a net from which none ever escaped.

Stephen King
Do you need someone to make you a paper badge with the word WRITER on it before you can believe you are one? God I hope not.
Stephen King
Friends don’t spy true friendship is about privacy, too.
Stephen King
We lie best when we lie to ourselves.
Stephen King
You've got to do something to fill up your day. And I can only play so much guitar and watch so many TV shows. It fulfills me. There are two things about it I like: It makes me happy, and it makes other people happy.
Stephen King
He found himself still with too many questions and not enough answers.
Stephen King
Sometimes a cigar is just a smoke and a story's just a story
Stephen King
I can't lie and say there are no bad writers. Sorry, but there are lots of bad writers.
Stephen King
Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win.
Stephen King
You can't polish a turd.
Stephen King
I saw something even more beautiful than a sense of humor: an appreciation for life’s essential absurdity.
Stephen King
