More quotes by Stephen King
Has it ever occurred to you that parents are nothing but overgrown kids until their children drag them into adulthood? Usually kicking and screaming?
Stephen King
That's the curse of the reading class. We can be seduced by a good story even at the most inopportune moments.
Stephen King
All you imagined, no matter how wild it might seem, was no more than a disguised version of what you already knew.

Stephen King
I'm a situational writer. You give me a situation, like a writer gets in a car crash, breaks his leg, is kidnapped by his number-one fan, and is kept in a cabin and forced to write a book - everything else springs from there. You really don't have to work once you've had the idea. All you have to do is kind of take dictation from something inside.
Stephen King
So where do the ideas-the salable ideas-come from? They come from my nightmares. Not the night-time variety, as a rule, but the ones that hide just beyond the doorway that separates the conscious from the unconscious.
Stephen King
I did spend years as an addict, so I know that world, although I wish I didn't.
Stephen King
Want to know the best thing about teaching? Seeing that moment when a kid discovers his or her gift. There's no feeling on earth like it.
Stephen King
People seem to think there's a magic formula to writing, i just write 1 word at a time.
Stephen King
Any parting could be forever, and we don't know.
Stephen King
The writer's original perception of a character or characters may be as erroneous as the reader's.
