More quotes by Stephen King
I have the world's best job. I get paid to hang out in my imagination all day.
Stephen King
I'm seen as somebody who writes for adults because I'm an older man myself. Some of them find me, and a lot of them don't.
Stephen King
Why does everyone think that I am a cruel and insensitive man? I mean, come on, I have kids... on my desk in little jars!
Stephen King
What charitable 1 percenters can't do is assume responsibility - America's national responsibilities: the care of its sick and its poor, the education of its young, the repair of its failing infrastructure, the repayment of its staggering war debts.
Stephen King
C-C-Can you get bones in your buh-buh-brain?' Bill asked. This was turning into the most interesting conversation he'd had in weeks.

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
As far as where I go when I die, the concept that I am simple going to flick out, like a light bulb, to me is not only spiritually impossible to believe, but logically it is laughable - the idea that we simply die and nothing happens.
Stephen King
No one can be as intellectually slothful as a really smart person
Stephen King
The sun was a molten coin burning a circle in the low-hanging overcast, surrounded by a fairy-ring of moisture.
Stephen King
Money can't buy off the lightning.
Stephen King
I work until beer o'clock.
Stephen King
There came a time when you realized that moving on was pointless. That you took yourself with you wherever you went.
Stephen King
Being sorry for myself is a luxury I can't afford.
Stephen King
Go now. Our journey is done. And may we meet again, in the clearing, at the end of the path.
Stephen King
Try any goddam thing you like, no matter how boringly normal or outrageous. If it works, fine. If it doesn't, toss it. Toss it even if you love it.
Stephen King
Fiction is the truth inside the lie.
Stephen King
I'm one of those people who doesn't really know what he thinks until he writes it down.
Stephen King
