Stephen King
There's one novel, Cujo, that I barely remember writing at all.
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
All is forgotten in the stone halls of the dead. These are the rooms of ruin where the spiders spin and the great circuits fall quiet, one by one.
Stephen King
Adults are the real monsters.
Stephen King
To the devil with false modesty.
Stephen King
Roland had taught him that self-deception was nothing but pride in disguise, an indulgence to be denied.
