No one can tell what goes on in between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of the change. You just come out the other side. Or you don't.

More quotes by Stephen King
I recognize terror as the finest emotion and so I will try to terrorize the reader. But if I find that I cannot terrify, I will try to horrify, and if I find that I cannot horrify, I'll go for the gross-out. I'm not proud.
Stephen King
But this wealth of information produced little or no insight.
Stephen King
The writer's original perception of a character or characters may be as erroneous as the reader's.
Stephen King
The dream might have been more than a dream. It was as if a door in the wall of reality had come ajar... and now all sorts of unwelcome things were flying through.
Stephen King
Memories are contrary things if you quit chasing them and turn your back, they often return on their own.
Stephen King
I thought it was great fun to scare people. I also knew it was socially acceptable because there were a lot of horror movies out there.
Stephen King
Writing isn't about making money, getting famous, getting dates, getting laid, or making friends. In the end, it's about enriching the lives of those who will read your work, and enriching your own life, as well. It's about getting up, getting well, and getting over. Getting happy, okay? Getting happy.
Stephen King
I just write about what I feel I want to write about. I'm like a kid. I get an idea, and it's like a kid's toy that you push and tug around the room. It's fun, it's bright, it's pretty and maybe it'll go clack-clack or whiz-whiz, whatever it happens to do. I like to make believe.
Stephen King
I am the literary equivalent of a Big Mac and fries.
Stephen King
The world had teeth and it could bite you with them anytime it wanted.
Stephen King
We make up horrors to help us cope with the real ones.
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
If you were seeing a lot of horseshit, there had to be a pony in the vicinity.
Stephen King
When I gave up dope and alcohol, my immediate feeling was 'I've saved my life, but there'll be a price because I'll have nothing that buzzes me any more'. But I enjoyed my kids. My wife loved me and I loved her. And eventually the writing came back and I discovered that the writing was enough. Stupid thing is that probably it always had been.
Stephen King
It might be that the biggest division in the world isn't men and women but folks who like cats and folks who like dogs - (L.T.'s Theory of Pets)
Stephen King
If we don't have each other, we go crazy with loneliness. When we do, we go crazy with togetherness.
Stephen King
Do you need someone to make you a paper badge with the word WRITER on it before you can believe you are one? God I hope not.
Stephen King
Whatever came to mind, whatever came to hand, I would read.
Stephen King
The death of the music business was insane, but audio recordings have been around now for maybe 120 years. Books have been around for, what, nine centuries? So they're more entrenched than music.
Stephen King
Until that afternoon in October four years ago, I hadn't known dogs could scream.
Stephen King
