Stephen King
By and large... the good's an illusion, little fables folks tell themselves so they can get through their days without screaming too much.
Stephen King
The last good time always comes, and when you see the darkness creeping toward you, you hold on to what was bright and good. You hold on for dear life.
Stephen King
In the end we always wear out our worries. That’s what Wireman says.
Stephen King
Did it [cocaine] for about eight years. Not a terribly long time to be an addict I guess, but it is longer than World War II.
Stephen King
What I'd show you is much more bizarre than anything we have looked at so far, and I warn you in advance that the first impulse will be to laugh. That's all right. Laugh if you must. Just don't take your eye off what you see, for even in your imagination, here is a creature who can do you damage.
