Say what you mean. Say what you see. Make a photograph, if you can, for the reader.
Stephen King
Grammar is...the pole you grab to get your thoughts up on their feet and walking.
Stephen King
...you need openness and inability to do anything other than get to the point.
Stephen King
I write in the mornings, in the bright daylight. But I get most of my good ideas after the sun has gone down and the dark is on the land.
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
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
When I was a kid I believed everything I was told, everything I read, and every dispatch sent out by my own overheated imagination. This made for more than a few sleepless nights, but it also filled the world I lived in with colors and textures I would not have traded for a lifetime of restful nights.
Stephen King
Las personas con un alto nivel de tolerancia al aburrimiento tienen tiempo de sobra para pensar.
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
The concept of dreaming is known to the waking mind but to the dreamer there is no waking, no real world, no sanity there is only the screaming bedlam of sleep.
Stephen King
I've been typed as a horror writer, and I've always said to people, I don't care what you call me as long as the checks don't bounce and the family gets fed.
Stephen King
Semi-automatic s have only two purposes. One is so owners can take them to the shooting range once in a while, yell yeehaw, and get all horny at the rapid fire and the burning vapor spurting from the end of the barrel. Their other use-their only other use-is to kill people.
Stephen King
I can see your dirtypillows.
Stephen King
and then woe is you, Pauly. Woe to the max.
Stephen King
Speaking personally, you can have my gun, but you'll take my book when you pry my cold, dead fingers off of the binding.
Stephen King
Scaring people, especially in our day and time, is one of the hardest things on earth, as far as I am concerned.
Stephen King
I'm afraid of all kinds of things. I'm afraid of failing at whatever story I'm writing - that it won't come up for me, or that I won't be able to finish it.
Stephen King
Any parting could be forever, and we don't know.
Stephen King
I am the literary equivalent of a Big Mac and fries.
Stephen King
There are all sorts of dream interpretations, Freud's being the most notorious, but I have always believed they served a simple eliminatory function, and not much more - that dreams are the psyche's way of taking a good dump every now and then.
