FEAR stands for face everything and recover – Old AA saying
Stephen King

What I'm saying is that I'm trying to find rational reasons to explain irrational feelings, and that's neveer a good sign.
Stephen King

If you don’t have the time to do something right, where are you going to find the time to fix it?
Stephen King
Image
Talent is a dreadfully cheap commodity, cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work and study a constant process of honing. Talent is a dull knife that will cut nothing unless it is wielded with great force.
Stephen King
Image
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.

the only mortal sin is giving up.

Sometimes stories cry out to be told in such loud voices that you write them just to shut them up.
Stephen King

Pain is the biggest power of love.
Stephen King
Image
It's a mystery. That's the first thing that interests me about the idea of God. If there is one, it's mysterious and powerful and awesome to even consider the concept, and you have to take it seriously.
Stephen King
Image
The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them - words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out.
Stephen King

Humor is almost always anger with its make-up on.
Stephen King

If you intend to write as truthfully as you can, your days as a member of polite society are numbered, anyway... You must be prepared to do some serious turning inward toward the life of the imagination, and that means, I'm afraid, that Geraldo, Keith Obermann, and Jay Leno must go. Reading takes time, and the glass teat takes too much of it.
