We all have a tendency to want order in our lives. But order presupposes authority, and authority presupposes, sooner or later, that we'll all need hooves. It's going to happen sooner or later, isn't it? You know it is.

More quotes by Stephen King
the only mortal sin is giving up.
Stephen King
If you can't laugh when things go bad--laugh and put on a little carnival--then you're either dead or wishing you were.
Stephen King
Sooner or later everything you thought you'd left behind comes around again. For good or ill, it comes around again.
Stephen King
Love, the simplest, strongest, and most unforgiving of all emotions.
Stephen King
The dream might have been more than a dream. It was as if a door in the wall of reality had come ajar... and now all sorts of unwelcome things were flying through.
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
Stephenie Meyer can’t write worth a darn. She’s not very good.
Stephen King
There is no tyrant as merciless as pain.
Stephen King
Every religion lies. Every moral precept is a delusion. Even the stars are a mirage. The truth is darkness, and the only thing that matters is making a statement before one enters it. Cutting the skin of the world and leaving a scar. That's all history is, after all: scar tissue.
Stephen King
She felt like someone who drowns remembering what it was like to still be on the boat, so calm and at ease, so carelessly safe
Stephen King
You say true, I say thankya.
Stephen King
It hurts to imagine stuff. It can give you a headache. Probably doesn't hurt physically, but it hurts mentally. But the more that you can do it, the more you're able to get out of it. Everybody has that capacity, but I don't think everyone develops it.
Stephen King
And I guess you judge how well you're doing by how well you sleep at night... and what your dreams are like.
Stephen King
Rationalism is the idea that we can ever understand anything about the state of being. It's a deathtrip. It always has been. . . . And if rationalism is a deathtrip, then irrationalism might very well be a lifetrip . . . at least until it proves otherwise.
Stephen King
It was really amazing the number of hard hits from which a mind could recover.
Stephen King
The rope by which the great blocks of taxes are attached to any citizenry is simple loyalty.
Stephen King
I started off thinking Eminem was a flash in the pan, a kind of hip-hop Hanson brother. How wrong I was. Recovery is sometimes funny, sometimes terrible, always painfully honest. The matching of Eminem and Rihanna on Love the Way You Lie is pure genius. Not Afraid is pretty great too.
Stephen King
There's a saying - Write what you know. It's bad advice if you take it as an unbreakable rule, but good advice if you use it as a foundation.
Stephen King
And if you are honest about the words coming out of your characters' mouths, you'll find that you've let yourself in for a fair amount of criticism.
Stephen King
There is the Watchmaker Theory that God wound up the universe and let it tick. That may be. or it may be that he takes a hand in things from time to time. But whatever it is, I am sure that there is something out there.
