More quotes by Stephen King
It's been quite a while since I was really afraid that there was a boogeyman in my closet, although I am still very careful to keep my feet under the covers when I go to sleep, because the covers are magic, and if your feet are covered, it's like boogeyman Kryptonite.
Stephen King
True love always happens in a flash.
Stephen King
The sort of strenuous reading and writing program I advocate - four to six hours a day, every day - will not seem strenuous if you really enjoy doing these things and have an aptitude for them.
Stephen King
You say true, I say thankya.
Stephen King
I think of fear as a survival function, and in the stories that I write, the only thing that I've tried to do is provide people with nightmares which are really safe places to put those fears for a while because you can say afterwards that uh, that, that well it was all just make-believe anyway, so I just took my emotions for a walk.
Stephen King
She felt like someone who drowns remembering what it was like to still be on the boat, so calm and at ease, so carelessly safe
Stephen King
The writer's original perception of a character or characters may be as erroneous as the reader's.
Stephen King
I like to end stories where the readers have a little room to run. They can resolve things as they like in their own mind.
Stephen King
There's a saying - Write what you know. It's bad advice if you take it as an unbreakable rule, but good advice if you use it as a foundation.
Stephen King
Writing is magic, as much the water of life as any other creative art. The water is free. So drink. Drink and be filled up.
Stephen King
Writing's about getting up, getting well, and getting over. Getting happy, okay? Getting happy.
Stephen King
A library is a place where you can live a thousand lives. So why are you waiting when you could be living? Visit your library today.
Stephen King
And that almost killed you? It wasn't deep but it got infected. Infection means that the bad germs got into it. Infection's the most dangerous thing there is, Tom. Infection was what made the superflu germ kill all the people. And infection is what made people want to make the germ in the first place. An infection of the mind.
Stephen King
People who try hard to do the right thing always seem mad.
Stephen King
The road and the tale have both been long, would you not say so? The trip has been long and the cost has been high... but no great thing was ever attained easily. A long tale, like a tall Tower, must be built a stone at a time.
Stephen King
I'd like to take a motorcycle trip across Europe, maybe even across China. Of course I'd also like to broker a peace agreement between the Israelis and the Palestinians, but it's important to put ceilings on one's ambitions.
Stephen King
The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there... and still on your feet.
Stephen King
The Overlook was still not done with him. Written on the mirror, not in lipstick but in blood, was a single word: REDRUM
Stephen King
Not every book has to be loaded with symbolism, irony, or musical language, but it seems to me that every book-at least every one worth reading-is about something.
Stephen King
You have to stay faithful to what you're working on.
Stephen King
