More quotes by Stephen King
I wasn't a social drinker. I used to say that I didn't want to go to bars because they were full of assholes like me.
Stephen King
There came a time when you realized that moving on was pointless. That you took yourself with you wherever you went.
Stephen King
In the years since, I've discovered there's a lot to be said for boredom.
Stephen King
Books are a uniquely portable magic.
Stephen King
A person who doesn't learn from the past is an idiot, in my estimation.
Stephen King
You couldn't get hold of the things you'd done and turn them right again. Such a power might be given to the gods, but it was not given to women and men, and that was probably a good thing. Had it been otherwise, people would probably die of old age still trying to rewrite their teens.
Stephen King
The crazy people of the world...shouldn't get to win. If God won't make it better after they do have their shitty little victories, then ordinary people have to. They have to try, at least.
Stephen King
Say your name over two hundred times and discover you are no one.
Stephen King
Description is what makes the reader a sensory participant in the story.
Stephen King
So okay - there you are in your room with the shade down and the door shut and the plug pulled out of the base of the telephone. You've blown up your TV and committed yourself to a thousand words a day, come hell or high water. Now comes the big question: What are you going to write about? And the equally big answer: Anything you damn well want.
Stephen King
You can't be careful on a skateboard.
Stephen King
God grant me to SERENITY to accept what I cannot change the TENACITY to change what I may and the GOOD LUCK not to f*** up too often
Stephen King
Some things it don't pay to be curious about.
Stephen King
Above, the stars shone hard and bright, sparks struck off the dark skin of the universe.
Stephen King
I am your number one fan.
Stephen King
The only religions I don't like are the ones that insist their God is bigger than your God.
Stephen King
The dream didn't fade as dreams usually do upon waking.
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
How else could he go on, except with merciful incomprehension held before him like a shield? How could anyone?
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
