Stephen King

Stephen King

Stephen King
You cannot condemn a man for what may only be a figment of your own imagination.
Stephen King
Terror?often arises from a pervasive sense of disestablishment that things are in the unmaking.
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
Definition of a wanderer: a guy who's always looking beyond.
Stephen King
And didn't they say that, although curiosity killed the cat, satisfaction brought the beast back?
Stephen King
Things were going very fast now. Too fast to suit him. Fantasy and reality had merged.
Stephen King
Being sorry for myself is a luxury I can't afford.
Stephen King
The shining. It was a good name, a comforting name, because she had always thought of it as a dark thing.
Stephen King
