More quotes by Stephen King
Jake went in, aware that he had, for the first time in three weeks, opened a door without hoping madly to find another world on the other side. A bell jingled overhead. The mild, spicy smell of old books hit him, and the smell was somehow like coming home.
Stephen King
You know, King said, I'm not much good at telling stories. That sounds like a paradox, but it's not it's the reason I write them down.
Stephen King
Talent is a wonderful thing, but it won't carry a quitter.
Stephen King
When you sit down to write, write. Don't do anything else except go to the bathroom, and only do that if it absolutely cannot be put off.
Stephen King
Everything that goes around comes around, they say, and although I've never been able to figure out who the mysteriously wise sages known as they might be, they're certainly right when it comes to time-travel.
Stephen King
There is the Watchmaker Theory that God wound up the universe and let it tick. That may be. or it may be that he takes a hand in things from time to time. But whatever it is, I am sure that there is something out there.
Stephen King
Let the word and the legend go before you. Let the world go before you. Let your shadow grow. Let it grow hair on its face. Let it become dark. Given time, words may even enchant an enchanter.
Stephen King
I think it is beyond doubt that H. P. Lovecraft has yet to be surpassed as the twentieth century's greatest practitioner of the classic horror tale.
Stephen King
When you stack up all the years we are allowed against all there is to read, time is very short indeed.
Stephen King
Time apparently did nothing but blunt grief’s sharpest edge so that it hacked rather than sliced.
Stephen King
The poets continually and sometimes wilfully mistake love. Love is the old slaughterer.
Stephen King
Description is what makes the reader a sensory participant in the story.
Stephen King
Remember that 'plumber in space' is not such a bad setup for a story.
Stephen King
Your first impulse is to share good news, your second is to club someone with it.
Stephen King
A short story is like a kiss in the dark.
Stephen King
We like to think about how smart we are. But I think talent as a writer is hard-wired in, it's all there, at least the basic elements of it. You can't change it any more than you can choose whether to be right handed or left handed.
Stephen King
And the most terrifying question of all may be just how much horror the human mind can stand and still maintain a wakeful, staring, unrelenting sanity.
Stephen King
He supposed that even in Hell, people got an occasional sip of water, if only so they could appreciate the full horror of unrequited thirst when it set in again.
Stephen King
His name is Legion. He is the king of nowhere.
Stephen King
After the 9/11 apocalypse happened in New York City, people, particularly New Yorkers, who breathed in the ash, or saw the results of that, have a tendency to keep seeing echoes and having flashbacks to it.
