More quotes by Stephen King
A cowardly leader is the most dangerous of men.
Stephen King
Fault always lies in the same place: with him weak enough to lay blame.
Stephen King
If you wrote something for which someone sent you a check, if you cashed the check and it didn't bounce, and if you then paid the light bill with the money, I consider you talented.
Stephen King
I think everybody has experiences from time to time they can't explain. They are peculiarities. Usually we just dismiss them because they are uncomfortable to think about.
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
And when there are enough outsiders together in one place, a mystic osmosis takes place and you're inside.
Stephen King
He had never been a social man. He had shunned causes with contempt and disgust. They were for pig-simple suckers and people with too much time and money on their hands.
Stephen King
Pride was the belt you used to hold your pants up when you had no pants.
Stephen King
Love is what moves the world, I've always thought...it is the only thing which allows men and women to stand in a world where gravity always seems to want to pull them down...bring them low...and make them crawl.
Stephen King
If you were seeing a lot of horseshit, there had to be a pony in the vicinity.
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
Go now. Our journey is done. And may we meet again, in the clearing, at the end of the path.
Stephen King
Death, but not for you, gunslinger. Never for you. You darkle. You tinct. May I be brutally frank? You go on.
Stephen King
A lot of authority figures want to be good. I sense that, and yet at the same time I sense that authority, after a while, always leads to some kind of oppression. When the minority report comes in, what you do is run the minority out of town with a flaming cross. It's just the way things are.
Stephen King
Kids absolutely not reading. I think it's because they're so screen-oriented [TVs, computers, smartphones]. They do read - girls in particular read a lot. They have a tendency to go toward the paranormal, romances, Twilight and stuff like that. And then it starts to taper off because other things take precedence, like the Kardashian sisters.
Stephen King
Speaking personally, you can have my gun, but you'll take my book when you pry my cold, dead fingers off of the binding.
Stephen King
FEAR stands for face everything and recover – Old AA saying
Stephen King
Poe was the first writer to write about main characters who were bad guys or who were mad guys, and those are some of my favorite stories.
Stephen King
If you liked being a teenager, there's something really wrong with you.
Stephen King
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.
