More quotes by Stephen King
If you don't have time to read, you don't have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.
Stephen King
Forced to define 'irrational subconscious,' I would say that it is a small padded room inside all of us, where the only furnishing is a small card table, and the only thing on the card table is a revolver loaded with flexible bullets.
Stephen King
What is writing? Writing is telepathy.
Stephen King
All right I think we've been down here in the dark long enough. There's a whole other world upstairs. Take my hand Constant Reader and I'll be happy to lead you back into the sunshine. I'm happy to go there because I believe most people are essentially good. I know that I am. It's you I'm not entirely sure of.
Stephen King
Read a lot, write a lot is the great commandment.
Stephen King
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
My books depend on someone in danger, putting pieces together and figuring things out. They do a lot of thinking, and that gets lost in the movie.
Stephen King
He smiles a lot. But I think there might be worms inside him making him smile.
Stephen King
I've killed enough of the world's trees.
Stephen King
I didn't want to even stand next to any high rise building as long as I lived... I didn't even want to go over a bridge.
Stephen King
Long days and pleasant nights
Stephen King
you will not falter, because you will have the Everlasting Arm of the Lord God of Hosts to lean on. Yes. With God’s help you will stand.
Stephen King
As infants, our first victory comes in grasping some bit of the world, usually our mother's fingers. Later we discover that the world, and the things of the world, are grasping us, and have been all along.
Stephen King
Until we see each other again, keep your head together, read some good books, be useful, be happy.
Stephen King
When asked, 'How do you write?' I invariably answer, 'one word at a time.'
Stephen King
If it's ka it'll come like a wind, and your plans will stand before it no more than a barn before a cyclone
Stephen King
Bad chances were better than no chances.
Stephen King
Good writing is often about letting go of fear and affectation. Affectation itself, beginning with the need to define some sorts of writing as 'good' and other sorts as 'bad' is fearful behavior.
Stephen King
Being sorry for myself is a luxury I can't afford.
Stephen King
Your first impulse is to share good news, your second is to club someone with it.
Stephen King
