Stephen King

Terror. When you come home and notice everything you own has been taken away and replaced by an exact substitute. It’s when the lights go out and you feel something behind you-you hear it-you feel its breath against your ear, but when you turn around there’s nothing there.

Sooner or later even the fastest runners have to stand and fight.
Stephen King

Image
I am religious in the sense that I believe in God and I believe that there is an abiding logical spirit that controls what goes on to a certain extent.
Stephen King
Image
Only enemies speak the truth friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.
Stephen King
Image
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
Image
I tend to scare myself.
Stephen King
Image
I'd been raised by my parents to believe barfing your feelings on other people was the height of impoliteness.
Stephen King
Image
But this wealth of information produced little or no insight.
Stephen King
Image
We lie best when we lie to ourselves.
Stephen King
Image
We all do what we can, and it has to be good enough, and if it isn't good enough, it has to do.

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.
