More quotes by Stephen King

Stephen King

Stephen King
This inhuman place makes human monsters.
Stephen King
I did spend years as an addict, so I know that world, although I wish I didn't.
Stephen King
If you're going into a very dark place, then you should take a bright light, and shine it on everything. If you don't want to see, why in God's name would you dare the dark at all?
Stephen King
I was built with a love of the night and the unquiet coffin.
Stephen King
I've always believed in God. I also think that's the sort of thing that either comes as part of the equipment, the capacity to believe, or at some point in your life, when you're in a position where you actually need help from a power greater than yourself, you simply make an agreement.
Stephen King
