More quotes by Stephen King
Weird love's better than no love at all.
Stephen King
The dream didn't fade as dreams usually do upon waking.
Stephen King
Talent is a wonderful thing, but it won't carry a quitter.
Stephen King
There are things of such darkness and horror—just, I suppose, as there are things of such great beauty—that they will not fit through the puny human doors of perception.
Stephen King
I think that we're all mentally ill. Those of us outside the asylums only hide it a little better - and maybe not all that much better after all.
Stephen King
We never cease wanting what we want, whether it's good for us or not.
Stephen King
The death of the music business was insane, but audio recordings have been around now for maybe 120 years. Books have been around for, what, nine centuries? So they're more entrenched than music.
Stephen King
Death is a mystery, and burial is a secret.
Stephen King
It wasn't just love that held people together. There was secrets, and the price you paid to keep them.
Stephen King
They were nice enough people and all, but there wasn't much love in them. Because they were too busy being afraid. Love didn't grow very well in a place where there was only fear, just as plants didn't grow very well in a place where it was always dark.
Stephen King
There's nothing as human as hunger. There's no creation without talent, I give you that, but talent is cheap. Talent goes begging. Hunger is the piston of art.
Stephen King
Battles that last five minutes spawn legends that live a thousand years.
Stephen King
Dolls with no little girls around to mind them were sort of creepy under any conditions.
Stephen King
We either learn to accept or we end up writing letters home with crayons.
Stephen King
What you don’t know, you can’t tell. Or made to tell.
Stephen King
Most gothics are overplotted novels whose success or failure hinges on the author's ability to make you believe in the characters and partake of the mood.
Stephen King
Strong delusions travel like cold germs on a sneeze.
Stephen King
The advantage of horror books is to take the reader and cut him out of the pack and work on him one on one. It has its advantages because the people that are there in the movie theater really are a mob. If you get one guy alone you can do a more efficient job of scaring him.
Stephen King
No one can tell what goes on in between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of the change. You just come out the other side. Or you don't.
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.
